I used a router and a perfect circle to cut them, in the past ive done them with a jig saw but not as easy. but if you take your time u could make them look ok

i havent been able to find a small perfect circle though. mine has a minimum radius of 70mm so a 6" circle is as small as i can get it. i know the issue with a jigsaw i was hoping to avoid having to use one. :) but im not sure how possible that is may involve a heap of sanding,

For small holes you can use a hole saw bit. Like for tweeter size holes. If you want to do flush mount. Use 3 different size hole saw bits. Drill a hole for the bit to go in. Do the inside first. Cut in the desired depth for flush. Do NOT cut all the way through. Then use the same center hole so that you can make the larger outside cut and cut all the way through. Then take a even small bit and cut the inside out to give you a donut looking piece. Use a screw driver to pop out the inner material leaving you a nice recessed piece. to make it easier than my explanation of how to do here is a vid.

Any updates? I'm anxious to see more!
Look twice, think thrice, 1 splice/ 1 slice!
This is a phrase i came up with and something i will now live by.
