One more thing about the spade bits and mdf, make sure you have a scrap piece of mdf or something underneath the piece you are drilling, so as to avoid blowing a big chunk of material off of the back of your work piece :) Minwah: Thanks :) excellent frontend btw, i love it. |

Spade bits are great. I got one for my CP. A good tip is to drill a pilot hole through the cp, and then drill a little on each side with the spade bit, then you do not get any chipping eyc from the board. |

The pilot helps to make sure the bit doesn't wander a little as you start as well. Assuming you put the pilot hole in the right place of course! :D |
