I'm finishing construction of a low cherry entertainment center and I'm using Brusso bullet catches to secure the doors. It's my first time using them. Any tips on installing them? I've played with some scrap in an attempt to refine my technique since it's a "one shot" deal installing them. My main issue right now is drilling the round mortise in the face frame and doors the perfect depth for the catch. I've got stop collars, but none are the right size for the 11/32" bit required for these catches. I've also been unable to locate an 11/32" forstner bit so I'm having to use my brad point bits and they tend to "grab" every so often. I suppose I could rig up some type of jig to secure the doors on the drill press table, but they're 24" tall.
Any wisdom here would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark
