What are the threads for at the base of the bit. (aka) The top of the arbor? Thanks in advance.

i've never used one, but i'm gonna guess they're for attaching hole saws

^yep

Reason is, I'm solid modeling this for my graphics class and would like to explain what the treads are for. Makes sense, thanks.

haha this was my gc211 project, probably still have the files somewhere

you need to model one that has a hex shank instead of a round one that slips in the damn drill

^ yea the one that I have is a hex shank, I'm not sure why this particular one is round. It seems like it would slip at high torque.

I tutored a guy a few years ago who did a VW switchblade key/clicker.

I, however, have not taken the class.
