Classic!
If you think on that white circle around hole i think that it is layer /last one or two of them/ of cloth in which epoxy is broken/peeled/detached .......sorry i can find right word . With hand sanding it should disappearhttps://imgur.com/a/oevsT9K
Been having an issue with g10, figured I’ll try here before posting a new thread. I’m getting some discoloration when drilling my holes. I’m using a drill press on the lowest speed (I believe it’s ~750 rpm), going nice and slow being sure to clear the chips, and drilling on top of another piece of scrap g10. It’s happening on both sides of the hole. I’ve tried using two fairly new drill bits too, not brand new but I don’t think I’ve used them much, still feel sharp. I drill undersized then ream to .187. G10 pins slide in and out fairly easily so I don’t think it’s too tight. I know I didn’t burn it either, went slow grinding it and dunking in water even though they never really got warm.
Any ideas? I’m pretty clueless right now. I’m leaning towards it being the bits. Is there a certain type I should be using, these cheap standard bits don’t seem to be working too well. Thanks in advance.

A shot or two from today's work, .080" 80crv2 at about 59, Osage Orange scales, orange & black liners.
After a little shaping, sanding & 1st coat of oil, it looks more like a blade now.
Thanks Natlek. So is this pretty normal then or is there a way to avoid it? Hasn’t happened to me with other materials so I was just surprisedIf you think on that white circle around hole i think that it is layer /last one or two of them/ of cloth in which epoxy is broken/peeled/detached .......sorry i can find right word .
