A suction cup secures the guide flat against the work surface and creates a small reservoir that delivers cooling water directly to the cutting edge, while the guide collar prevents the bit from wandering at the start of the hole. The WDS138 accepts electroplated bits up to 1-3\/8\" diameter, making it ideal for 1\/4\" anchor holes for towel bars, soap dishes, shelves, cabinets and shower door frames.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4 style=\"color:#F15C22;
