KF5008 2 Inch Hole Saw Pipe Tube Notcher Tubing Notcher - Adjustable up to 60 Degree

Worked for my need

Came as expected. No issues

Overall well built. Only problem being the 5/8-18 threads on the adaptor were not a true 18 tpi. Purchased a new name brand one, and works fine..

This is a very solidly made tool. However, it is not very precisely made, which is expected for its price. The shaft and block are nicely machined for a very smooth fit No slop at all. I highly recommend it be oiled with motor oil or similar when in use. And keep it well protected against rust when storing it. The threads for the hole saw fitting were larger in diameter than it should’ve been, and I had to run a die to bring it to proper specifications. Otherwise the hole saw wouldn’t fit. Also, the markings for the angle settings are way off. Even when the printed template was set precisely at zero, the 45-degree mark was off by 3 degrees. It’s also stuck on with a weak adhesive, making it prone to shifting. I had to engrave the most commonly used angles to make it easier to set the most commonly used angles. Otherwise it does a nice job of cutting perfectly good notches. The photo shows 1” scrap steel tubing set up with a 45-degree angle.

Used this to cut dozens of notches in 1.75" outside diameter DOM steel tubing for a roll cage. This was the most affordable option I could find but it worked well despite the low price. PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR ANGLES though because its protractor isn't perfect.

Received a well used tubing notcher that was supposed to be in like new condition. Everything was dirty and I’m missing bolts. I had to replace a badly damaged snap ring and remove an almost seized 1-3/4 broken hole saw. The shaft of the tool is very damaged. See photos. I tried to save a few buck but from now on I won’t do it again! Total trash.

Made a few bumpers out of it and it was great better then using a grinder
