you don't think that I had time to clear up from my last foray into the shop do you?
It had occurred to me that I could drill on the holes into the thicker piece of mahog and then cut the slice off. A waste of wood perhaps though and I've got it earmarked for other things

I'm convinced they have a much smoother entry cut into the top surface, even compared to my Fisch Forstner bits.They are also a hell of a lot easier to keep sharp as well
