JUST A REMINDER

Post by joel gopan »

When drilling the holes in your troop racks and seats for the 5/16" Carriage Bolts, to recess the head of the bolt by using a 5/8" Speed Bit. Finish the hole with a 5/16 drill bit.(just deep enouch ti make the bolt head even with the surface of the wood) The speed bit leaves a nice centerpoint for the bolt hole. A drill press is the best method for drilling the perfect hole.
