I'm curious how most would handle a 4 place bolt hole (1.50" deep x 1.625 dia - +/- .005).
Do you typically just center drill, and drill with a couple different sizes until you get to 1.625 or do you drill it close and machine the total depth with an end mill to get the exact size?
I would think you could center drill, and step up with a couple different sizes and ream the hole if needed but I don't know if that is necessary with those tolerances. What would you veterans do?
