Can this be used to drill 0.5mm drill bits into plywood?

You could use this to drill fine holes in plywood, the chuck clamps down to pretty much nothing, so in theory any drill but could be used. This is a rotary tool though, not a drill, so the torque is much lower (drills have a multi-stage gearbox to get high torque). Therefore you need to apply much more modest pressure to the bit when drilling and let the speed of the tool do the work.

I used this with 1mm drill bits into MDF. I do not see any reason why the chuck would not accept a .5mm bit. I used it to put fiber optics through MDF for a star ceiling. As you can see from my previous review, the tool failed after 10-20 minutes of use. It ran very smoothly and nice at first but the failure was not what I expected given the price. I ended up having to run to W*L - M*RT and picked up a black and Decker tool for $29 to finish the job. The Black and Decker finished the job (more than 1100 holes) without incident.

this tool was designed to be used with a dremel. if your dremel can hold a 1/4" drill bit, then yes

It should work just fine with 5/4 Pine. The tool just fastens boards to a frame, counter sinking special screws.Material type shouldn't matter.

I guess if you could find a drill bit with a skinny shaft you could. I've never seen a bit like that. May be they make them. i didn't buy it to drill with, I bought it to file my dogs nails.

Yes, those bits will work in this screwdriver. The screwdriver comes with a flathead screw bit and a phillipshead screw bit. No. This is a relatively low RPM screwdriver and is not intended for drilling. It may drill holes in thin soft wood with the second set of bits you identified, but I would not expect to have satisfactory performance since it is really a screwdriver, not an electric drill.

No because the end of the bit that fits in the drill needs to be the exact size and shape of the slot on the drill. There is no way to adjust the size of the slot like on a standard drill.

In my opinion no. With this thick of a bit you would likely burn out your dremel motor and it may not drill perfectly straight.

I have not tried yet but I do think so. So far, I used this to cut plywood (3/4"), tree (>2" ), and dry walls. Normally, you cut it with knife instead cutting to avoid dust. The battery drains fast when cutting than used with drilling.

I would think so. I have a Black & Decker bit set and the drill has had no issues with using them.

No, this drill bits are only for metals and wood. Masonry tips are different

Probably not. This tool is made to cut plugs, it is to be used in a dill press. It most likely will wobble around when trying to get it started with a hand held drill as there is no center point to this cutter. Disclaimer: I haven't actually tried to use it in a hand drill so this is somewhat of a guess. Maybe more people will answer this question and will confirm or disagree with my answer. If the screws are phillips head and the socket of the phillips bit has been "stripped" out so that the bit no longer turns the screw and you are trying to get the screw out by another means you may try a 1/2" wood chisel to cut some wood out around the head of the screw then use a vice grip attached to the head tightly and try turning the screw out with the vice grip.

You can but a Hammer drill would be faster. For small diameter holes with a masonry bit it will work if you take your time.

I'm not sure about that. The core bit would have to screw on to the tool's arbor. Plus the RPM might be too high for the bit.

All I can say is that I do not use this for drilling, I only use it as a screw driver. I would contact DeWalt and ask them any questions you may have such as if it is possible to use it for that purpose.

Hummm....I don't know, never tried it. They are made of polypropylene. I would use drill bits made for plastic rather than made for wood or steel. Google will get you there. You didn't mention size, but I would drill at least 2 sizes. A small pilot hole then a larger hole. Maybe 3 times if your finished hole is large so that your aren't stressing the plastic too much with each drilling. Hope that helps. Be careful about screw tightening after drilling. Too much stress might crack a drilled piece too.--retired engineer here.

I only use the fine and ultra-fine drill bits, so I can't help you there. Suggest contacting the manufacturer. Regards. M

You can in moderate to soft wood. The speed is slow on the Skil 2350 but adequate torque. I personally use this as a screw driver, not a drill. My 18 v drill with a quick change attachment make by Dewalt where I can switch out a drill to a phillips driver is better.
