Plug-cutters come in different sizes and varieties. I used a 1/2" tapered bit to cut my plugs. The resulting plugs are slightly narrower at one end, which makes them easier to push into the hole later. One safety tip: To prevent the plug-cutter bit from bucking and skating on the wood, set the teeth of the bit in the wood by leaning heavily on your drill before you begin. Then keep some weight on the drill as you start the motor.
