Hi everybody! So, my company is looking at doing some restoration work on a house that was foreclosed on. Part of our challenge is that while the house was vacant somebody broke in and stole (among other things) all of the radiators. The new owners won't be replacing the radiators, rather they want us to either piece-in the floor, or plug the holes. So, my question is, is there a good way we can:
A: Bore-out all of the existing holes in the floor to a uniform size?
B: Cut ourselves some new plugs?
I'm thinking of using some combination of hole saws to achieve the different hole and plug sizes. I've done it before on a smaller scale to replace european cup hinges, I made the plugs by removing the pilot bit from a hole saw arbor and mounting the hole saw in a large drill press so it was more controlled. I'm wondering if there's a nice size of hole saw to use? I've attached a picture of one of the places the old pipes come up through the floor. Any help would be much appreciated!!
