after reading the first paragraph , you beat me to the punch ..................


I've also had this other thought...Taking the drill press and a 4" hole saw and cutting a recess into the side just enough to clear the chain pipe. If I took the 4" saw and notched the edge of the pulpit


Air this sure beats movin the rope and like randle says it will look cool ( extra custom)....

I wish you were alil closer to me I'd help ya

But will it work, using a hole saw in a press to drill 1/3 of a hole? Your valued opinion here.... ;)?

I would use a jig saw with a fine blade,
If you use a hole saw you would have to clamp a another board along side it and drill as if it were one piece of wood. and drill slow.

if ya need me u can call my cell.

The reason I said to use a hole saw is that with Starboard when you use the Jig saw it heats up, you have to move fast, I have got the cut done and had to go do it again, it melts its self back toghter.

It can be done but with such a thick piece you might have to do it 2 or 3 times to get it to break free.

Use a drum sander or dremel to smooth when done.

Jig saw should be able to do the job.
