I am working on a project that requires a couple of 2" diameter holes to be drilled/cut into some 3/4" thick boards. I used a hole saw the first time but it took a quite a while and was pretty tough on the saw blade. Is there a better method for cutting the holes? Should I drill a series of smaller holes and clean it up with a stencil and router? This is a project that I may end up using as gifts so I may be drilling quite a few of these holes if I can find a more efficient method.
Thanks.
