Machining a groove in wood
I have a 800mm piece of wood that I want to cut a 5mm wide grove in (to a
depth of about 6mm). I dont have a router but I do have a cheap pillar drill. Is there a bit that I could use (with a suitable guide for my wood) that would let me €śroute€ť with my drill? (The wood in question is one leg of a €śtripod€ť base Ikea lamp. The power cord dangles down the middle at present and I think it would look a whole lot better if I could hide the wire along the inside of one leg.) https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/lauters...hite-40405046/ Tim -- Please don't feed the trolls |
