Impossible to drill an undersize hole. As the drill will not go through
the hole. Sharpen the end offset as to the center point and you will get
a bigger hole.

No, it isn't. It's not all that uncommon.

Errr Harold, will you explain that a tiny bit.

I measure the shank of a, say .500", drill. Stick in the machine and
drill a .450" diameter hole? In mild steel? 1 inch thick?

Cheers,
