“You can use Forstner bits to excavate the hole in a pillar drill or milling machine”
I had thought about that, however with the super tight clearance between the colon riser holes I opted for pre-drilling the solid block until I had a wide enough hole to begin milling the hole with a rotary tools straight routing bit. After I had test-fit the tubes in the holes I picked the cleanest looking of the two sides and opened up the other for the boards. Green masking tape came in very handy to keep unintentional damage to a minimum.
