When given the opportunity to get a little techy, we get a little techy 🤷🏻♂️.
What happens here
Begin by using a cordless drill equipped with a hole saw to cut a large, circular opening in the deck surface. Ensure the hole saw's diameter matches the size required for the pop-up outlet unit. Drill slowly and steadily to create a clean cut. After the initial cut, the hole saw, along with the circular cut-out, will drop through to the underside of the deck.
Goal: Create a precise circular opening in the deck for the pop-up outlet.
