Forstner bit to drill through plastic
 

Can I use a Forstner bit to drill through plastic, maybe 3/32 - 1/8"
thick?. I'd back it with piece of wood.

I need two 1 1/16" holes, and then I'll probably never use it again.

Here is a cheap one:

Or is there another or better, not too expensive way? .

Tnx

I just drilled a hole 1 1/2 inch in 3/4" plastic yesterday with a
forstner in the drill press.. Not a real simple job, but definitely
better than a hole saw, which is your other choice.
