Patrick: I think the bit size number is #45 off the top of my head, but it's 0.082 against a typical 0.072 damper wire. Go to _http://bobmay.astronomy.net/misc/drillchart.htm_ (http://bobmay.astronomy.net/misc/drillchart.htm) for drill bit sizes and numbers. Paul In a message dated 6/18/2009 10:13:05 P.M.

And I seem to have misplaced the nifty handout from Karen Robinson's comprehensive damper class. So what size drill bit is appropriate for me to use for this 1922 S&S O, oh damper gurus?
