I'm trying to fix some wood dowelling into a piece of board (making a wellie rack!) - just have the dowelling sticking up out of the wood so it needs to be a snug fit ... (with some glue but the strength will come from the fit)
I know this is possible I have a hoop set and a toddler toy like this...
I have 12 mm dowelling and 13mm drill bits - but these are too loose -thinking the idea is for the dowelling to go straight through. (I have a set of drills and there is a 10mm bit and a 16mm bit - seems like for 9 mm and 15mm dowelling respectively)
I need to go buy something....
Will a 12mm bit create a snug fit for 12 mm dowelling?
Would it be better to get something a mm smaller? (but 11mm don't seem a common size) or use the 10mm and try and make the hole bigger with 'something' ...
