Bore the Blank
Bore the Blank
7mm hole is bored 1/8" short of all the way through.
Mount the Blank into a vice or clamp as seen here.  Check to ensure it is perpendicular to the table.  The next step is to set the depth stop. You want to stop about an 1/8" short of all the way through.  This will prevent the blank from splitting, or "blowing out"
