That is what I would have done Billy.. spot on.

But why a reamer? The difference with a reamer is that they shave smaller amounts off in a controlled manner rather than cutting it off in one swath with a drill.

The reamer is possibly a bit kinder on the fittings and a little more precise.

But both do the job..
