Hi guys, may I ask whats the best and easiest way to turn down the extra wood in the pilot to fit tightly in the butt joint. I just want to make sure I don't overcut it. If u have any video u can pm me thanks in advance.

Unless I'm missing something, the easiest to turn down round things is always on a lathe.
Chuck it up with a collet, indicate to within a thou if possible.
Use a sharp bit. A really sharp one.
Take slow passes and keep dry fitting till you get the right fit .


FWIW, I hate them.
