The problem with that is that the first goof-up might have stuffed up the centre-point, and to try to start a Forstner on its rim, without the centrepoint biting first, would have been a catastrophe. So you'd have had to drill out with say a spade bit, smaller than the first Forstner, insert a plug, re-find the centre, then attempt your bigger size Forstner...........knowing that if that one didn't work you'd be going through that all over again with an even bigger Forstner. Too much angst!!
Here's the baize, I'll be using, picked by the customer..... First dealings with this company, and the service and advice has been excellent. Lovely fabrics tooMalc2098 wrote:I like the baize touch. I've started putting it on the base of my wooden tea light holders.

OUTSTANDING
It is, without doubt, a pleasure to watch a true craftsman. I shall continue to make all sizes of kindling, and loads of sawdust. Truly inspiring.

"£114.95 - £149.95 / m inc. VAT"
Is that per mile rather than metre?

Interesting, Robert, that would of been very useful, and I like that it appears to have no adhesive; working off static.Robert wrote:Amazing project and can only echo all the other superlatives already posted
One small suggestion get some of this stuff from screwfix for masking wide areas

Comes in different widths and the polythene has a nice static cling to whatever you stick the tape to. I used 3 different widths during some recent redecorating and was impressed with it. Tape is probably not as good as the best painters tape but it all came off clean without tearing and sealed fine at the edge.
