Drill the bars, or file the locating dowels?

Filing seems to be the most popular way, but just thought I'd run it by you guys here first.

By that I am assuming minimum of filling so that there is still some friction exerted when tight?

Cheers.

Drill a hole.  It's an education in measuring to get it in the right place but you'll be glad you did.

drill..

i used some electrical tape then center punched it.. then i could check location and makes it easier to drill...


DaveH

Cheers guys, that's what I'll do.

Was thinking of using tape, but I could maybe make a template from the standard bars, as long as i managed to line it up...

DaveH

All done! Made paper templates and transferred to gaffa taped bars, centre punched and then drilled.



Cheers for the advice to drill, far better fit :-)
