I’m needing to route (6) half oval, recessed pulls in 3/4” maple fronts and trying to figure the most efficient way to go about it. I did a two step trial run using a straight bit and bushing on the semi oval template, then placed the stock on edge and 1/4” straight bit incrementally plunged to depth. It worked alright but looking for other ideas to make it a cleaner and quicker process.
I’d like the pull to be pocketed rather than a complete cutout. The number of finger pull bits is a tad overwhelming. Looking for help to narrow down what I need to achieve the look on 3/4” stock. Any and all advice is welcome!
Below are shots of the trial run and the design inspiration.
