Thru Drilling Plugs
When you plan on thru wiring a plug do you drill out the hole thru the stock first? As in before you shape the blank. It would seem to be eaisier to drill the thru wire hole first and that way if you miss you didn't waste your time shaping.
How do most drill the holes; using a drill press? Saw some mention of using the lathe but not sure how this is done. I don't have a drill press handy but do have the lathe.
Final question what is the best way to acheive the profile without the use of a duplicator? Does anyone make templates of their chosen plug using oaktag or cardboard?
This wood turning stuff could be addictive....
