I'll try a step by step
1. Drill hole in plug to depth you want with Forstner bit.
2. Put drill press on high speed
3. Put 1/4" dovetail bit in drill press
4. With drill press on put the dovetail bit in the hole for belly weight and move around to make the bottom of the hole larger than the top.

I use 1/4, 5/16 and 3/8 forstners depending on how large a belly weight I need and only drill as far as the head of the bit. This keeps the belly hole out of the thru wire hole if they are connected the lead will fill the plug.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
