A friend asks me this question:
I'm looking for info on the theoretical/practical difference between
these 2 models of corking wick:
https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ZcTP2bPVL._SL1500_.jpg
And which one to choose for:
- hide a screw head
- replace a small knot or other crossing defect in a board.
THANKS

No personal experience - but the Lee Valley product description
can be helpful sometimes -

It seems the tapered plug cutter only goes to 1/2 inch ;
the carbide tipped cutter goes to 3 inches < drill press use >
