Surface Chuggers
« on: August 22, 2010, 11:57:19 AM »
 I have been looking for a bit that will cut the cup shape for the front of a chugger style popper. I would also like to find a bit that will counter sink the eyes and create and eye socket. Any help is much appreciated

Is this a drill bit or part of your body? If it's a drill bit where can I get them? If its part your body they must be high speed and very tough.

I have to look and see what sizes I have left. At one time there were little balls and big balls then a middle size ball too. Not sure what is left.

I'm back. Got some nice pictures of Elk on my buddy's ranch. Make me an offer on the 2 sizes you have. I don't use chuggers much, but I thought it might be fun to make a couple. I have a buddy thats making them from Trex decking material, I thought I would give that a try as well.
