Hey Folks,
Those of you who turn hollow forms and urns, or do deep drilling, whose Forstner bits and extentions are you using? Drilling holes on my Nova 14'' deep is not uncommon. I finally found a 1 3/4" bit and compatible extention and bought it. The bit is single flute and has a long replacable auger screw in the nose of it. I find that the single flute Forstner wants to wonder the deeper I drill.
I have a fear of loosing the bit out of the extention while deep into the wood. I suppose I can make an extention. ( I have the metal tools to do so) Surely, I'm not the only person with delema.
Have any of you found a good Forstnerbit / extention set-up that you would recommend?
TIA,
Bob Haverstock
