Hi. For those who machines their door pulls and knobs holes on your cnc for melamine doors, what tool do you use ? Your standard 5mm brad point ?

None at all, as long as the bit is reasonably sharp and the wasteboard not terribly scarred. We use a 5mm bradpoint bit with the cutting shoulders on it. That makes it very forgiving.
