I used a plunge router and 3/4" bit. Router was a Porter Cable 7539 3 HP p lunge router. It plunges 3 inches. Bit was carbide. I went through about 3 inches of wood bench top. I plunged most of the way through and then st opped. Lowered the bit in the clamp a little more then completed the full plunge through the wood. Clamped the router to the bench top so it would n ot move. Cannot recall how I made sure the holes were the same distance ap art and lined up with the other side. Bench top has a line of holes along each edge.
