Dear Geof,
That advice is brilliant!
Yes, I can get PCB carbide 2.0mm drills, but from memory, the cutting thread may be a
a "bit" short for 10mm stock.
The strange thing was that even the first hole I drilled with the 2.0mm HSS stubby was tight. I blew out all the swarf with an air duster before trying the first press fit. No luck.
I then tried going down the original hole again , just hand centreing, and the hole was still too small.
Anyway, I'll try and get a 2mm carbit bit and see what happens.
Thanks,
Best wishes,
Martin
