Rough cut soundboards

Cut the soundboards out with a knife, tried for a while to alter a
compass to a hole-cutter - but ended up drilling 30 or 40 small holes
instead. Next will be bracing.

And I have a tenor to consider... It will most likely have a one piece
spruce top, and the rest will be mahogany.

Wouldn't a hole-cutter like this (http://www.clasohlson.se/Archive/Images/Products/Hi/300795_X_2006-06-30_102007_365.jpg) do the trick instead of drilling 40 holes?

No it wouldn't, you secret agent you! But there are high grade hole cutters that would. Can't buy all tools at once though.
