I think I found my new home!

[vienna]

Been away from the forum for day and a half or so, so just catching up. Sounds like the whole project is going well, so far. I have a perhaps helpful household drilling hint: to minimize the tearing on the exit surface when using a hole saw, fasten or clamp a scrap board to the exit side of the piece. When you drill through, the scrap piece will prevent the tearing and ripping when the saw cuts through. If you can't fasten or clamp a board to the piece, lay the piece on top of the scrap board, make sure it won't shift, and drill through that way. I'm not one of those "This Old House" guys, but I do have a bit of experience having had to drill through a few desk and credenza backs when PCs first made their way into offices...

Even a little lady like you could do it...
