You could get a circle cutting jig for your router, and cut them with that. http://www.woodcraft.com/family.aspx?familyid=3582&productid=143735 |

I always figured they were meant to go below. The Happ sticks even have an indentation clear around the top for the washer to move around in when the stick is bolted to the bottom of the panel. As far as the dust going in... Where is it going to go, the extra quarter inch until it hits the washer at the bottom of the panel instead of on top? |

Dustwashers are supposed to go under a metal panel. Just look at the artwork. Dustwashers on top completely messes up the way the art looks on the classic CPO's. |

Doesn't the hole around the shaft look ugly if they are bottom mounted? OMG that was the dirtiest thing I've ever typed. |

That would leave a 3/4" hole for crap to collect if you put the washer underneath. I agree that metal CPs are not an issue. |
