The core box is generally used for round bottom grooves. I recently made a
chalkboard. For the chalk holder, I routed grooves in the tray with a
corebox bit. The panel pilot bit is used when cutting a hole such as for an
outlet box in paneling. The point on the bit allows you to drill through the
panel without having to have a starting hole.
