A plug ejecting hole saw (20) includes an arbor holder (21) removably attachable to saw cups (22A), (22B) having small and large non-circular attachment bores (41A), (41B), lockingly engageable by front and rear bosses (61), (63) of a nose-piece (54) which protrudes from a locking body (50) longitudinally slidably held in a collar (45). Bosses (61), (63) have transverse grooves (68), (68B) intersected by a longitudinal groove (53) slidably holding a lug (81) biased forward in groove (53) by a spring (90) to block grooves (68), (68B) with front and rear locking tabs (110), (120); grooves (68) (68B) are unblocked to rotatably engage wall segments of a saw cup bore (41A), (41B), by pushing a saw cup (22A) (22B) rearward against tabs (110), (120). Grooves (68), (68B) are unblocked to enable rotatable disengagement of a saw cup from nose-piece (54) by pulling collar (45) rearward relative to a saw cup.
An arbor holder for releasable attachment to a hole saw cup of the type having a front annular cutting surface, a cylindrical body terminated at a rear end thereof by a rear transversely disposed circular base wall having through its thickness dimension a non-circular attachment bore concentric with said front annular cutting surface and said body, said arbor holder comprising;
An arbor holder for releasable attachment to a hole saw cup selected from first and second pluralities of hole saw cups of the type having a front annular cutting surface, a cylindrical body terminated at a rear end thereof by a rear transversely disposed circular base wall having through its thickness dimension a non-circular attachment bore concentric with said first annular cutting surface and said body, said attachment bore of said first plurality of hole saw cups having a first diameter, and said attachment bore of said second plurality of hole saw cups having a second diameter larger than said first diameter, said arbor holder comprising;
