These are buttons. Had to drill a small relief in the center for the thread loop on the button.

I have also used coins and stone.

What size drill bit did you use to hollow out the brush end?

For these I use a 1" forestner bit, then my skew to increase the diameter slightly.

The video is for EPR blanks, but the principle is the same.
