Hi All,
I want to make a 2cm hole part way through a 3cm piece of pine. The hole must stop within 1mm of the opposite face of the wood but must not break through at all.
Can anyone suggest a method/tool to achieve this? Obviously a flat wood drill bit has a big spike in the middle which would pop through, and even normal drill bits are too "pointy" for this task. I'm assuming I'll need to use a pillar drill for the depth accuracy.
I'd be grateful for any thoughts/ideas/suggestions/alternatives!
