Hi Tom welcome to the forum. You could counter sink from underneath using a bigger bit to get the nuts onto the faucets or some how extend the mountings of the faucet.
Reducing thickness of butcher block through hole.
How can I best reduce the thickness of butcher block by working through a 1 inch diameter hole from the top? I'm mounting faucets and the butcher block counter is too thick. Can't get to hole from bottom.

Would something like this work?

I think that reikimaster is on to something here.
I agree with Glenmore. Either a Forstner drill bit or a spiral router bit using a jig and a Guide Bushing. I'll bet Bob even has a jig for just that- he has a jig for everything (just kidding). -Derek
Since I can't work on the underside of the butcher block but can load a bit from below, I think reikimaster's suggestion to use an "undercut" bit is a good solution. I'll give it a try.
Thanks for all the help!
