Here's how I installed a pop-up plug socket in a kitchen worktop made of laminate wood in our utility. Please note this hole saw would NOT work with granite!
Also, you can find my written guide here if it helps:

Cheers for that advice, wasn't sure from which side of worktop to drill from .many thanks for the help

@treblebass6721 4 года назад

You're quite right about not being able to increase the size of the hole once it's been cut. It's a pain! I do have a solution though which I've used a few times. Clamp or screw a piece of ply to the underside (or clamp on the top of a fixed surface). This allows the drill bit to pilot the cutter (depending on the length of the drill bit). Once you get through the ply on top the cutter will guide itself and won't wander. I hope that's helpful and gets someone else out of a jam! Thanks for your videos, always look forward to them!

@paulthompson5416 4 года назад

If your using screw type saws just put the larger holesaw on the arbor first then screw on the smaller size after. The smaller one acts as a guide and cuts perfectly centre of previous hole.

@treblebass6721 4 года назад

@@paulthompson5416 I see what you mean. If the smaller (original) size holesaw fits inside the larger saw it should protrude further and act as a guide (if it all fits onto the arbor ok). I'll have to try that, thanks! I don't think it would work with the type of cutter Vikki was using though.

Nice video. I need to get out more, I didn't even know they made a pop up socket. And I like the outtake at the end. Thanks for posting.

@jparky1972 4 года назад

Once you start the outer hole, you can drill a hole right through the outer hole with a small drill bit. It gives the sawdust somewhere to go and helps prevent the wood burning.

@TheCarpentersDaughterUK 4 года назад

Thanks for the tip!

@garydouglass9577 4 года назад

@sikkepossu 4 года назад

A tip for easier hole sawing. Hole saw's problem is that the saw dust has no place to go while sawing and it then clog up very quickly and therefore heats and even burn the wood. That's because the saw is circular, obviously. By drilling two holes (8mm or so) opposite sides of saw circle so that the saw will go over those holes makes some room for the saw dust to get off from the sawteeth. Hole saw will then saw quicker and won't heat up as much.

@@TheCarpentersDaughterUK I've only got expensive ones , but you can never have too much power . if you have an electric one try it on a scrap piece of wood to compare .

@stevecraft00 4 года назад

Very nice job as always, but i would only ever use a popup as a last resort. You are effectively using an extension lead limited to 13 amps, and in a kitchen where high power appliances are used, you dont want to be limited like this. I appreciate this is a utility room though. You have a good bit of wall there to fix a couple of sockets to, i would have done that instead (unless there are reasons you couldnt do this!)

@TheCarpentersDaughterUK 4 года назад

@@TheCarpentersDaughterUK To enlarge an under size hole, get a bit of scrap ply and start to drill the new sized hole. DON'T cut through. Then cut full depth the original sized hole. Use Double sided tape to secure over the original hole and the part cut hole acts as your guide. Worked for me.

@totherarf 4 года назад

Nice job! If you read the packaging it will tell you what size hole is needed ....... or you could just hold a ruler up against it and measure it yourself ;0) Unless they have improved those multi-blade holesaws they are not the best quality and soon blunt (it is a Long time since I tried one though)! If you cut the wrong size hole there is a way round it (isn't there always?) ..... simply clamp a thin board across the hole you have already drilled and drill a new one! ...... If your blade is not deep enough, no problem, just start off the hole and when you have drilled as deep as you can remove the board. The new hole you have started will stabalise the blade! One point to remember is that your pop up socket will not be able to provide as much power as a twin socket! You are going through a single plug on the bottom so are limited to 13A .... and it Will get hot if you run it for long at that level. For those who doubt me try feeling your plug after you have run a tumble drier for a while! Setups like your desk on the other hand are ideal! ....... unless you have a handy electric heater fan for keeping your feet warm under there ;0)

Errr... am I missing something. But where does the power come from the sockets? What do they connect to? This video seems to be about drilling a hole, not actually about connecting a power socket in the worktop???? The most difficult part is connecting to electrical supply under the worktop which most people wont have if you have installed it after the kitchen fit.

There's a hidden plug socket underneath. This isn't hard wired. I didn't show it as it's pitch black under there.

@deanoh6414 3 года назад

Incorrect on enlarging the hole if you go too small initially. With the cutter you have just drill it again with the same set up plus the larger cutter on the same base palate. Smaller cutter is guided by current hole and larger cutter removes the wood you need for the hole size required. Slowly will be the order of the day though.
