The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Making a Stovebolt Bed 1 9/16" Forstner Bit?

I ordered a 1 9/16" Forstner bit on line today. I had hoped to make the holes today, but I guess I'll have to wait.

It's a good thing I have to wait, though, because when we put the bed on the frame, NOTHING lines up. The whole thing is cocked, and if I had made the recesses for the washers, I'd be in real trouble.

I guess I'll pose another question about squaring the bed.....

Thanks, Mar-Ktech
