Don’t know much about them, but expect I am going to need one for my work on my 914. A quick Google search seems to show that they come in different sizes as well as styles? Some look like one piece bits while others look like a small bit that must go into some other type of chuck or mount. Some look very much like a regular drill bit and some look more like a hole saw with arbor. Some mention some type of depth gauges to prevent drilling out the metal behind the weld.

Recommendations on what style I should get?
What size should I look for?
Any tips or tricks on how to use these?
