Plug Cutter/ Wood Dowel maker 8 Bit set. Standard & Four-Tooth type
The above description was my attempt to copy an eBay link....... total failure as you can see!
Hopefully the description of the cutters I have will tell our experts the type of plug making tools I have.
I want to cut some plugs out of the offcut end of my replacement teak grab rail. I knew I had some tools for the job and eventually located them.
I can see how the four pronged type cut the plug but cant fathom how to start the hole. Eventually I made some plugs by drilling a starter hole the size of the outer diameter of the cutter then used that as a starter guide.
Is that the way to do it or have I missed a trick? I still have no idea how to use the 'standard' tool ??
I did look on line for DIY advice but couldn't find anything suitable
Any advice please?
