Use a waist black under your blank when drilling, this will help avoid chips and blowouts. Also, you may want to cut your blank longer, do not drill all the way threw, just deep enough for the tube and then cut to length on a band saw.

He meant "waste blank" ... something to backup your blank where the drill is going to come out.
You said, "Use a waist black under your blank when drilling"
What does that mean?

Meant "waste block" if you want to paint yours "black" that is optional but not neccessary
