I am also not a fan of leaving the square ends on. Good luck and you won't go wrong with any of the practices mentioned above. P.
Never tried that, normally drill my belly holes after the lip. The order I have been using is (1) mark eyes & hook & weight & hook holes, (2) cut lip slot, (3) use lip slot to to mark line tie, (4) drill through hole, (5) drill belly and eye holes.

Thinking through that I can really see the value of using belly holes to align along with a jig.
