Gadget Man- I used a DeWalt Plunge Router with an 1/8 bit. I've attached a picture.

Thanks everyone for all of the positive feedback.

Mercurythunder:

Nice router, I have a very basic older Black and Decker router. I can't do the plunge thing.

Keep up the good work.

One hint on posting pictures, only use the medium sized picture,s they fit the page much better.

Archery turkey season is over in Minnesota, so it was time to get back to work. I should have the counter top and upper cabinet done by the end of the weekend. It was good to see some progress tonight.

I would have liked to have gotten further, but I'm happy with how things are looking. The square hole on the right cabinet is for the converter. I thought I'd mount it high away from little fingers. I just need to draw a picture for the left side upper cabinet. Any thoughts on what it should be? I was thinking a wild turkey, howling wolf, or an oak tree.

After that its the speakers,under cabinet lights, outlets, stereo, and sink.
