3/4 in Forstner bit did the job

Would Recommend

I have the occasion to use Forstner bits on a regular basis, but needed a 3/4 inch. My usual source was out of that size so I found this as a second choice. I will be back for others. The cut was clean as could be.

Irwin forstner bit

Would Recommend

Does a great job boring through soft woods. Much better than a spade if you're going to overlap the holes.
