L brace counter sink holes
I have 2 different braces, L and T brace. the counter sink hole size is
different in both of them. the flat head machine screw #10-24 x 1/2" seems to fit the T brace fine, but doesn't fit the L brace too well. the flat head is a bit too big for the L brace counter sunk hole. anyone know what size screw might fit this. if a smaller size is not possible, then I may have to make the counter sink hole a bit bigger so that a #10-24 flat head screw will fit. anyone have recommendation on a counter sink hole bit? -- ---=««-Dilbert Firestorm-»»=--- Zizzle that Fire - it's Zizzle Time !!!!!!! |

Run at very slow RPM. Use cutting oil. |

You don't need 'em anyway for this project. As far as cutting tools like drills and countersinks, no, don't buy any old brand. Most of the stuff at the big box is junk. Go to a real industrial tool supply store in your city. You don't need carbide, or cobalt, or anything fancy, just high quality "high speed steel." |
