[Public-list] Cutlass bearing size (revisited)

[sousa, stephen (ENG)]

Lee,

I used a 5/16 bit and punch a set hole on the bronze of the cutlass bearing
in the center where the set screws are attached. This stops the drill from
walking on the bronze Snug them up so they held the bearing in place. If the
drill did walk on the bronze as you mentioned you would compromise the
threads.

Hi Stephen,
 
How did you avoid damaging the threads for the set screws while drilling
the 
dimples?
 
Afraid of doing just that, I test fitted the bearing first and made marks  
where the dimples had to go, then pulled out the bearing for the drilling,
then  
put the whole thing back together. Would have been alot easier if I knew 
there  was another way to do it!!!! :) Share your technique, for next time.
