Inexpensive but good quality TCT (Tungsten Carbide Tip) forstner drill that guarantees hundreds of clean holes in both soft and hardwood.
The strong centering tip and cutting teeth provide a clean bore with a clean edge.

The big advantage of a forstner drill compared to a speed drill is that it does not start to chop / hit when drilling is done from the free hand.
The Forstner drill will certainly show its advantage at larger diameters and lower speed.
Another important advantage of a Forstner drill is that it does not have a long centering point, which means that a much less thick piece of (waste) wood is needed to
neatly drill through the material.
Drilling without a bottom plate is of course possible, but in most cases this gives a less tight result at the bottom of the
workpiece by breaking out the material.

TUNGSTEN CARBIDE TIP (TCT)
Tungsten carbide is about twice as stiff as steel, with a Young's modulus of about 530-700 GPa (77,000 to 102,000 ksi), and is double the
density of steel - almost halfway that of lead and gold. It is comparable to corundum (α-Al2O3) in hardness.
The tungsten carbide tip is specially designed to cut holes cleanly in end grain and thin material, ideal for drilling concealed hinges and door locks.

The best result is naturally obtained with a stationary machine, but freehand drilling is also very well possible with a Forstner drill.
