Is there any benefit of drilling a pilot hole before going in with the spade bit? Seems like it might be easier to get the pilot hole square and then that would help with the spade bit - they are brutal!

hi mate sorry only just noticed id not replied to you, i do try and make a thing of replying to everyone so sorry for the delay, There is no right or wrong mate if you feel using a pilot hole then drilling with a spade/flat bit then that's cool, as for the square part, you should see that your spade/flat bit is cutting evenly, ie not taking loads from one side or the other or the top more than the bottom, wedge the door with wood and eye in that your standing square on with the door and then try and pick a hight and then keep the drill at that hight and you should stay level as you go in 👍

What’s most useful when it’s long and hard? Answer: A good education

That’s a good one but I’ve used this a few videos ago I’m afraid
