Re: Need Cheep Fingerbits......
The cheapest best bit I have found were the fingerbits I bought from Diamont Boart - JC Collins, There were red and 5 segments. I think they were around $69 or less new and they performed almost as good as my orange mills from ADI at $100 a bit. I did have to slow down the feed a bit.

Re: Outlet cutouts in back splash
Depending on your equipment, i have used a waterjet to cut them or you can use a hand grinder with blade to notch out partially from the front and finish cutting out from the back. You can cut it out bigger and go past the cutout on the back never see it from the front. Mark it out with tape and pen...
