If you drill, use as low revs as you can. From: Bill Coleman via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Sent: Monday, November 7, 2022 11:55 AM To: Stus-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Cc: Bill Coleman <colt...@gmail.com> Subject: Stus-List Re: 3M 4200
I would drill it out with a good quality Cobalt drill, probably 1/8" then a step up, decided by how well you have the pilot hole centered. Use a good quality lubricant, something with chlorine, or what we use here for SS is Anchorlube G771 It looks like Practical Sailor agrees with you on the pins - https://www.practical-sailor.com/safety-seamanship/offshore-log-in-use-report-atkins-hoyle-deck-hatches<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.practical-sailor.com%2Fsafety-seamanship%2Foffshore-log-in-use-report-atkins-hoyle-deck-hatches&data=05%7C01%7C%7C8e8d8efafc8b434997de08dac0e0fe2d%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C638034369812710604%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=tBG%2FgsJNckXrbR58Of%2Fj3gj%2F%2FWswWuwKyRRo4LEhu9c%3D&reserved=0> Bill Coleman Entrada, Erie PA
