I acquired a fixture plate for my Taig mill. On this particular version every hole is blind and threaded 10-32. I was planning on drilling out some of the holes to 3/16 and make up some dowel pins from 3/16 drillrod stock. I have discovered that a piece of 3/16 drillrod stock will not fit into a 3/16 reamed hole. I did not know that. I guess I can grind a D bit from the same drillrod stock. That should work. I sure don't want to buy a box of 100 3/16 dowel pins when I only need 6 or 8. Any other thoughts?
