What to do if my LUMBERJACK TOOLS Tool is not cutting stock?

  Kimberly RhodesJul 29, 2025
  If your LUMBERJACK TOOLS Tool isn't cutting the stock, there might be a few reasons: * The stock may be larger than the tool is designed to handle. In this case, taper down the end of the log using a draw knife. * The blades might be positioned too close together. Reposition them so they are no closer than 1/8". * The blades could be dull. Try sharpening them or purchasing new blades. * You may not be applying enough pressure. Lean into the drill with your body to increase the pressure.

  Spiral grooves on the stake when using a LUMBERJACK TOOLS Tool can occur due to: * Lateral wobbling of the drill. To avoid this, hold the drill as steady as possible while cutting. * Removing the cutter while the drill is still spinning. Always ensure you DO NOT remove the cutter until the drill has come to a complete stop.
