Re: How to Make a Clean Hole with 1 1/8" Dill Bit?

This is totally doable by hand (assuming you don't have a mill or drill press which would be the better option). Use a stepper bit, or you can just step up your bit size incrementally, start with a center punch, then center drill it, then 1/8", then go up by 1/4" each bit if you want your hole to be as precise as possible. I would highly recommend getting a stepper bit though, they're nice to have and always give you really clean holes.
