Another not pitbulls tip of the day

Post by losthelm »

Check to make sure the drill bit labled 7/8 the bit was actualy .982

For some reason the whole set of forsner bits are not labled with the size they actualy are. I suspct someone at the plant labled metric bits with the closes standard size.

As a result the PVC legs I cut are not the wright diamiter. After three hardware stores I found some poplar dowling that was nominaly 1" that fit.
I wanted to keep the project light and cheap so I checked Conduit as well as CPVC Pex as well as anything else that might work. black pipe and galvanized are oversized but just barely.

I was not a happy camper.
