how long of a plug will this cutter make?

The internal length is approximately 2-7/8 inches (cutter tip to start of curve on top edge). Hope this helps.

This cutter will cut a plug as long as the stock you're cutting into is deep. Probably limits out at 2 1/2" but i don't have it with me so i can't measure. Can go as far as the drive shaft. This cutter is very aggressive and suitable for a drill press. I use it on a hand drill but it maxes out the drill's capacity. One must use caution and keep hands clear and push hard against the material for initial bite to grab hold, and that it will. Very sharp . Nasty and effective. Be careful. Cuts straight plugs, not tapered! Good luck.

I use it to make 3/4 inch plugs but it's capable of 2 inch or more. When you cut your plugs, don't cut all the way through the wood you're cutting from. If you do, you'll have a hard time removing the plug from the cutter. I cut most of the way through and then run the wood through the table saw to separate the plug from the mother wood.

Looks like the physical limit is 3", over that you'd run into the shank. Never tried anything near that thick though.

It might be able to do this job, but not with the blades that come with the tool. It seems to me that a concrete saw from the rental yard would make cutting the channels pretty easy. On the holes for the plug boxes, I think you could use this tool with a better quality blade (Maybe a diamond one).

I don't think I measured it exactly. Just used a 1/8" drill bit to make the initial hole (used the side of the bit and ran it around), and then used a dremel with a stone 20mm in diameter to smoothen the hole and enlarge it until the plug fit snugly. I think it's around 22mm in dia.

My guess is it will last for 20 minutes of actual cutting if not more. Most of the time it outlasts me. You are not using it continuously like you do with a hedge trimmer. You will not be sorry you bought this product. If you are really concerned, buy a second battery and have it charging.

This cutter works best on 220 V but also quite well on 110 V . It used compressed air which the manual refers to as gas. An average sized air compressor will do the job well. When you purchase this unit, you will have to purchase a new plug, as the one one that is on it can not be matched with a receptical that we have available in the USA. I suggest you put an air dryer ( available at Northern Tools or Harbor Frieght) between the air compressor and the air regulator that mounts on the back of the cutter.

One battery will cut a single 8 inch log in about 10 minutes. Most probably use it for smaller wood, but you can cut up to about 14 inches if you have multiple batteries. There is a newer model with apparently incompatible lithium batteries which I would get instead if it were my first tool to use these batteries.

Probably it won't because it is a little bulkier than some. However, you can trim away a little of the edges, very carefully with a razor blade, OR cut the existing plug off and solder on a more streamline one.

There is a small brick wall plug charger with a cord which fits into a small receptacle on the butt end of the handle. Obviously, you disconnect the charging cord to use the cutter. Everything is included. Charging is simple.

The plug-in is about 3 inches long and about 1 inch wide. If you can't plug it in on an end, it will probably cover 2 or 3 other plugs. My surge suppressor has slots that are sideways, so it is not an issue.

65 to 66 inches long, without the plug on. You cut to length and install the plug on the end.

Looks like Edward answered your question, the other thing I might add; make sure you have the right length of cutter

Dont wory, dont Know the exact length but it's long enough......you will need to cut it.

I would not recommend this trimmer/cutter. It is not powerful enough to be effective.

I believe it is said to be 6 feet long, but I think the actual cord length is a few inches shorter; the 6 foot spec must include the part inside the box! Mine always seemed to be just a little short; I'd like to see them about 8-10 feet long so they would reach far enough to clip to my belt and then plug the tool in there. I'd be able to adjust the speed without taking my eyes off the router or other tool I am controlling, since I'd be able to reach to my side easily and would know just where the knob is without looking.

Another thought. Because the plug cutter is convex, it tends to wander when you first start drilling. That's the tip on starting slow. You might also consider drilling a starting hole with a forrester or spade bit and then cut the plug from this hole so it would wander less.

Quite long; around 8-10 feet. From the product page: "Diameter 6.3mm plug and it is 8 Ft long"

Never tried but if your spade bit is sharp and take your time with plunging I'm sure it will.I recently had to drill 3/8" plugs in oak with a very dull plug cutter, took my time plunging, got the job done.
