Title: Speaker Holes
Post by: pithed2 on July 07, 2011, 05:24:44 pm

What's the best way to cut 4" perfect circles for the speakers?

All the router jigs I've seen cut a minimum of base of the router + 1".  I need smaller, but don't trust myself freehand.

Any ideas?

I have this one and it's great.  It cuts smaller circles.
