No, ya got lost somewhere Dan. The question at this point is how do you
resize a forstner bit by dressing it, and how could it possibly be the
ideal bit to resize.



Turn down the outside, or grind down the outside. It is a relatively
small
height, and all solid, except for one or two small areas.

You are talking about grinding the OD of one of these bad boys?

Thanks Geoff, that is the question on my mind too. If you could even find
one that was 11/16, you would have to pull .030 per side off of it to get an
oversized 5/8. If not, you would have to pull .060 per side off of a 3/4. I
don't see how you could do it without a tool grinder.
