Never thought of that before. This might change all my plans for when I get around to building my fence!!!!!
Who do you think makes the best hole saws for doing this?
I use Blu-Mold brand. They are a standard bimetal holesaw and gives me the best for my money. Not the most expensive by a long shot but it's the one for getting your money's worth. HD used to carry that brand but not anymore at least not in my area. I order them online.
Lennox is also a inexpensive brand that last a lot of cutting. I put a little cutting oil on as I go. A squirt here and there makes a difference.
Now I'm old school and haven't used one of the carbide teeth hole saws kinda like the ones used in a mill, they now make them for portable drill use so can't comment on them. Now back to the saddle making. When I first read this post I thought the OP was trying to bend a saddle, a term used in electrical conduit, and couldn't think of anything you could use for a pattern or jig. I get it now what he's trying to do.
