There are a few drill bits I have seen for cutting circular holes in
wood and plaster board.

Subject: Re: [GZG] Turnwheel Templates for Button Makers
Oh, I've got several, but, as Roger pointed out, I quickly run into the
problem of 'too thick'. (8-)
I was just wondering if anybody had heard of hole punches being
available
that don't require an industrial press to use, for example. Or, heck,
just
being able to buy pre-cut foamcore circles, as opposed to having to buy
the
full sheet and going to town on it.
That's one reason why I ended up going with buttons -- I built a set of
50 bases in under three hours, including printing, figuring out how to
make
a button, and cutting them out of the paper. I probably could have gone
even faster if I wasn't watching a football game at the time. (8-)

Hi Jerry,
Go back to the craft store. Buy a circle cutter. :)

Hey everybody,
Something else people were asking about at GZG-ECC and I just
remembered
to put it up as well:
http://www.warpfish.com/jhan/ft/turnwheel.pdf
These turning wheels are meant for bases or for little turning guides
for
FT. They're designed for "Badge-A-Minit" button makers, but, with a
little scaling, could probably be used for other button makers as
well --
or just cut'em out and glue them to your favourite circles of
cardboard.
(Which is a heck of a lot cheaper then buttons, if a tad more time
consuming. (8-) )
Though, if anybody out there has figured out a way to cut out
consistent
circles out of cardboard or foamcore, and to do it quickly, I'd be
much
obliged if they'd share the idea. (8-) (i.e. something faster then
tracing a template with a knife...)
Thanks, JGH
