I have an old cast iron table from a table saw. It has a small

like it might not realistically work.
Looking for any suggestions..
Thank you,

A square file?. CI files really easily unless the edge is chilled, in
that case you might need to start with a TC grit file. This should not
take long unless the hole needs to be greatly enlarged.
Thanks,
I have to double the opening essentially making it fit a router
template. I'm not familiar with a TC grit file and I am assuming
this is a diamond hand file? Seems like that might take a while by
hand.
