The whole issue with drilling holes is the bigger the hole the less metal that is left behind. This can cause splitting that would possibly need repairing with greenstuff, etc. if you didn't drill straight. So actually it should be easier to drill a smaller hole than a larger one - just drill straight.As long as you can hold the piece relatively firm wether with one hand while you drill with the other or with a vise you should be just fine. The hand drills work just fine just takes more manpower.Drachenherz - I am not sure why you are suggesting that this is a difficult thing to do when we both know that it is not. Unless by difficult you mean that it will take more muscle doing it by hand. However that is the case with any tool. With a hand tool you can get the job done and do it well but it will cost you stamina and time while a power tool will get the job done easier and faster but at a cost of more money for the tool. Jon - the conversion you want to do with the parts you have selected are some of the easiest to do. It is basically a weapon swap. Go for it and have fun. Cheers,-Mike</blockquote>
