Hi meanmachine
1- "chuck the bit" = put in the trash can, put in file 13, use it for a tent stake, give it to a buddy you don't like, paint it white and use it for a door stop,..don't use..
2- "new top with 2ea" = make a new top with 3/4" MDF stock but this time use 2 boards of MDF stock...so it's flat this time..
