But wouldn't that require multiple plug cutters to cover the different
diameters?

The Lee Valley counter sinks are not designed for plugs,
you would need these for plugs:

Often times, the hole doesn't really need a plug, just a flush fit
for the screw head.




Those are for wood screws, not drywall screws.
Most of us use dry wall screws today.



Really, do you believe that?





Yes I do. I said most. I didn't say all.
I think if you took a survey you would not find tapered wood screws in
use for 90% of the people.

I think you will find DRY WALL (LIKE) screws most of the time. While
they don't have to be drywall screws, they are straight shanked screws
that are drywall like.

There is that better? ;-0


Not really; you've expressed nothing but personal opinion. If you'd
limited your statement to "they won't work for me, because I use drywall
screws instead of wood screws", there would be no complaints.

As I use wood screws, I (and apparently Leon), don't fall into your
assumptive "most of us" categeory.
