Question:
What speed settings should I use with the Freud PB-012 Forstner Drill Bit?
Answer: When using the Freud PB-012 Forstner Drill Bit, a slower speed setting is generally more effective to reduce heat and prevent burning, especially when working with harder woods.

Freud Forstner Drill Bits Editorial Review
The Freud Precision Shear Serrated Edge Forstner Drill Bit PB-009 is a well-loved and popular product amongst its buyers. The serrated edges design prevents heat while the smooth cutting edges leave a smooth edge on the workpiece. It is perfect for drilling sockets for large dowels in projects and boreholes on boards to make trays for water glasses. However, the product may not be ideal for plastic and marble and the teeth look wrong for plastic. Though it has been used on hardwood with ease, it is unclear how it would perform on ebony.
