Cut to Size
Then using a table saw or miter saw, cut about 1/4" to the side of the hole that was drilled.
Rough Shape
Using a belt sander, grind down all the corners to evenly shape a circle the best you can.
Sand With Dremel
Now that you have the shape of a circle, attach ring to dremel using a 1/4" drum. Use tape or cloth if needed to ensure it fits snugly. Begin slowly spinning ring, sanding from 60 grit, up to 400 grit, to achieve desired shape.
