3" plug cutter (tenon cutter)

[John R Fortiner]

Carbon Steel tenon cutters ( will cut up to 3" in length ) are available
in 3/8, 1/2, 9/16, 5/8, 3/4, and 1" sizes from MLCS.  mlcswoodworking.com
On the "higher tech" side of similar cutters you can get a carbide tipped
cutter that will cut a 0.65" tenon, but I have a feeling that is a little
too large for your purposes.
