Kinya,
When replacing reeds, what size drill bit should I use to widen the opening in the reed and what size for predrilling the reedplate prior to using the tap bit?
I couldn't tell from your articles.
Hello Bluzmann,
Use a #55 Tap Drill Bit for the reed plate and a #52 Clearance Drill Bit for the reed. This will accommodate the 0-80 bolts perfectly.
