I have a brand new set of forsners that I have never used, but the package says to never ever use them except in a drill press.  If I put the little building under the press, turned on its side, I would have to hold it in place, and I am pretty terrified of putting my hands anywhere under a drill press that has a forsner bit in it.  You are talking about losing a finger.

I drilled all the holes in my fascia for switches with a Forstner bit, one of the joys of power tools is you don't have to believe everything you read in the manufacturer's instructions.  If I believed everything I read, I probably couldn't use half my tools.  My favorite was all the crap that came on my table saw, how you ever manage to actually use the thing with all that stuff installed certainly escapes me!

I have a couple of the multi-step bits, actually they look like they're made to this job, I'd give them a try.
