Fixing wonky drill hole?

[Erik S]

I screwed up a hole on a Hummingbird enclosure yesterday. Location was good, but I mixed up the hole size. Center hole was supposed to be for a toggle, and I drilled it oversized.

I recommended this earlier in this thread, but I had never actually done it. Made up a brass bushing to adapt back down to toggle size. Looks great with a fancy dress-nut.

Man that is excellent

I had been doing all my drilling dry, but @temol recommended IPA, so I’ve got some in a ketchup bottle now, and a squirt works great to reduce the aluminum buildup on the drill.

I save the IPA for after the build, although sometimes prefer a pilsener.

I sadly was stone-cold sober when I drilled some wonky holes.

You should turn that brown box into a breadboard-pedal test-bed (or a very small amp);
And the klompen (wooden shoe), some sort of Dutch pedal-circuit should go into that one;
DeWalt case as amp enclosure? Sure, why not?

I see pedals everywhere....
