Silly question probably and the answer is going to be ‘buy the correct size drill you tight git’…but…if a kit I have requires an 11/32” drill (which I don’t have) would an 8mm drill bit ( which I do have) work after a bit of sanding via a long piece of dowel?
The wood is a nice piece of yew ( I love yew…I like saying that! ). Would perhaps a friction fit be possible?
