Re: Bearing Reamer?

I use a step bit most of the time. If the hole is a little big, I peen the edges. I use positive retention to locate the bearing so I am not depending on the press fit to do that. I had not thought about polishing the bit to make it a little smaller. Large dia twist drills tend to end poorly with sheet metal. When they grab, they will bend the sheet metal.
