Anyone ever tried replacing cylinder pegs in a cabinet? : (

I had to do 147 on each cabinet. You do the math. It is very simple. I just took a door knob bit, put it in the drill press, set the press to the correct depth. Set the shelve on the table, and boom. Little 1/8th deep circle impressions. Then use Elmers to glue them in. Took about 2 minutes to figure that one out.

Brad, Your stamping came out great. Do you remember where you got the stamps and what size and font are the numbers? Thanks, Bob

Bob,

You are in luck! I found the box and I had the order invoice for the stamps.

The font is Times and I purchased from "The Stampin Place"

Product code is 902503 Times numbers.

They come in a sheet that you will have to cut apart with scissors and glue the individual stamps to a piece of wood. I would suggest a dowel. I cut short lengths of ¾" square wood and after a while the sharp edges of the wood really took it's toll on my hands. If I were to do it over, I would us ¾" dowel.

Good luck and post pictures!

I haven't got time to read all the responses so, if this has been said already, forgive me.

- The hole saw is the way to go.
- You don't need to, and shouldn't, use it in a drill press. Do it by hand. With the drill press, too much happens too fast and wham, you've got junk.
- The crumby condition of the pockets, in the area inside the circles, makes no difference as it will be covered by the peg.
- Really good hole saws, i.e. not the adjustable ones, have a removable drill bit. The really good ones won't be at Lowes or the like.

I made one shelve and drilled all the way through it for a template. Then set my drill press to the proper depth just to score the shelve I was making.
