<p>Nick,</p>
<p>I've been able to get flush/smooth plugs by trimming them, using a fine tooth flush cut razor saw---</p>
<p>and sanding was minimal.</p>
<p>This little tool is very handy, for the small tasks.</p>

<p><img alt="Thin blade bends to lay flat with your cutting surface" src="http://images.rockler.com/rockler/images/41819-02-80.jpg"></img></p>
<p>The blade folds nicely into the handle.</p>
<p><img alt="Folds for storage while protecting the blade" src="http://images.rockler.com/rockler/images/41819-03-80.jpg"></img></p>
<p>Found it at Rocklers, for about $10</p>
