Need to drill out bolt holes on pentas

Hi

Bought some pentas but the bolt holes are too small.

Is it an easy job to drill them out bigger? Only needs a slight expansion.

Any advice given greatly received

cheers

dont think anyone will put there name to a definate answer for liability issues

but i will confirm it has been done many times, using the correct size drill.

BUT DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK

do you have access to a large pillar drill to keep everything exactly square? The slightest bit wrong will end up in bad times!!!
