yeah those are the same templates i used.

I believe i got my carbide bits from an online drill-bit shop. Price wasnt to bad. I'll sift through my stack of receipts that I keep, there's probably an invoice in there. I'll let you know.

found it lol... BuyDrillBits.com
3/8 CYLINDRICAL BALL NOSE CARBIDE BURR worked pretty well for me

And grab some of these for your die grinder too: http://www.harborfreight.com/52-piec...set-96826.html
They sell smaller/cheaper sets of them in the store. (just dont press too hard cuz the shafts tend to break)

Check the video I posted. I've done all my porting over the last 5 years with a Dremel. Plus, the bits are damn cheap compared to the carbide burs and frankly, in my experience, work a hell of a lot better. And far more pleasant to use than any air grinder. Plus it doesn't take another $700 to buy a compressor which can operate the grinder continuously.
