  1. Those are excellent ideas I like the finishing nail the best and can't see why it wouldn't work thanks a lot. .../Hans
  2. Yes it is a great piece but very tight for drilling I've thought of free handing it but there is only 1/8" of room that's not much if your nor square but thanks for your suggestion Rusty.
  3. yes thanks Ron I have one more option I have one of those converted dentist drill that run 400.000 rpm it runs on air with a turbine I'm going to try that first I think but the problem with it is that it uses oil in the turbine to lubricate and it spits it out once in a while and I certainly don't want oil on my wood.
  4. I didn't live in Groningen only went to school there I lived in Zuidlaren when I went to school in Groningen Richard, yes there appears to be a few Dutchmen here in the Village.

    Hi All

    Hi Mel welcome to the Village Hope to share interest and idea's I'm Hans and live in Mexico
  6. Just started cutting today as my drill press is to small to reach the center, I can only drill 4" in So I could gain a bit by cutting up to the border off but I'm a bit hesitant as to it may weaken the whole thing and I still won't be able to reach the center, So tomorrow I may go to town to see about buying a dremmel and dremmel drill press I just don't see how else I'm going to do it. Anyone have any advise?
