Hello Bill It looks like Harbor fright stopped selling the set that I bought from them. but here is the Kitts. http://kittstools.securesites.net/cgi-bin/sc/productsearch.cgi?storeid=*242a6eb914c5d8376f8d0e50fdbe6907b1513ef6 link. as far as I see it, any 1/4" or 1/2" shank carbide or diamond hole saw bits would work. the carbide or diamond dose not cut the wood well, but it dose burn the shape Easly. ;-) since I'm only going just past the surface I don't think it matters how well it cuts wood, Think of it like, using a wire to burn a line across a wood spindle on a lathe. (the wire doesn't cut the wood it builds up heat and then burns the wood. these hole saws do pretty much the same thing.) and in my case since I am using the same plunge set up, all that I needed to do was use the same holes on the index plate to center my rings, I thought it worked out pretty well. (Its Quick, Easy, and Something that noone here has done yet.) I LIKE IT! ;-) talk to you all latter.

Great job curt can you post a pic of the hole saw you used Bill From: legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com [mailto:legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of curt george Sent: Saturday, 6 April 2013 7:44 AM To: Legacy Google group Subject: Some pix's of todays project. Hello All today I was able to Almost complete the Wooden Man Dummy that I started two days ago, The log is maple, just under 10" dia. 37" tall, I cut down the tree about 15 years ago, so I think its dry enough to work with now. ;-p Everything is pretty straight forward, after hand planning and some cutting of the wood, to make it fit onto the Legacy , I then turned the body round. As a detail that I like to do, I added a head dress to the top of the Mook Jong, Every Mook Jong that I made I add some kind of detail to is to make it somewhat different. The large bead on the top is 2 1/4" wide, and the rings were cut/burned with a set of diamond hole saw's three saws and the gear index were used to make the detail. the outer rings are a 2", the large inside rings were cut with a 1 1//2" and the smaller inside was cut with a 1/2" hole saw. I like these hole saws, they do not have any tare out of the wood, the full circle keeps the router/cutter balanced. (there is not vibration at all with these bits.) The only way that I know of how to do this kind of cutting would be with a fly cutter, and those have a problem with both vibration as well as tare out. So I think that this hole saw solution is a good one. The hole saws have a 1/4" shank and are mounted in the router with the used of a reducer collets, I bought my two sets of hole saws at Harbor Fright, and Kitts Industrial tools. Today I am finishing off the stand to hold the body and I've added a Pecan stain to the body. I will take a few more pictures of the finished piece latter. Have a good day all. Now back to My play time. ;-) ( I have a lot more things that I want to get done before I have to go back to work, Monday.)
