The CutOut tool doesn't make a second cut on the same surface with an existing CutOut, no matter how small the diameter of the first cut is. In order to simulate a counterbore, you would need to use the CutOut tool on the first circle, then extrude the second circle, align the two top surfaces, and then make a Subtract Solid.



correction --- (It seems to only have this issue when the two diameters are concentric)
