I work for Starborn Industries which is the company that produces the Smart-Bit. The SB was designed so that the countersink would last thousands of drills into Ipe and even more drills into a softwood like pine. I have worked for Starborn for 3 years in which time I have not heard one claim against the SB. Please contact me so we can discuss this and figure out what is causing the issue.

Worst investent I made - it is expensive and the countersink cutter was blunt after 30 holes in pine
It should not be on the market

Good Review
This is Something I will be Checking out
Just hope Sears Canada Carrys it or I will have to buy online.
Did you try it with MDF or Hardboard

I have been using this bit on Ipe hardwood decking. Works very well. I recommend the Smart Bit. Last a long while.
