Rob, when I looked at the pic I thought boy! I woulda tore the teeth of the hole saw with my air drill.
But then I read the above.
Which one is the Slo one? and did you actually use the other to cut the other holes?

Hi Steve , The slow one is the old looking one , the one with the larger hole saw , and yes I used both air drills , the other had a much smaller hole saw in the chuck.

Hi Rob , looking smart, interesting that the slow air drill works with that size hole saw, electric drills seem too fast to use them and battery drills seem to burn batteries
, I will have to see if I have an air drill that goes slow 
.keep up the good work
Cheers Mick
