I like making my own centering rings and currently use a 1 and 1/4" forstner bit and then a sanding jig to fit the body tubes. The minor issue I have is the 1 and 1/4" bit is just a fraction too big for the 29mm MT so some extra epoxy is needed to hold them in place.
I found a company that sells metric bits but they only carry carbide bits in those sizes - which makes them pretty pricey ($51 and $81 respectively). I realize that carbide may be the best way to go in the long run, but does anyone know of another supplier of forstner bits in those sizes for less dough?
