Feel free to elaborate at your leisure
I knew there would be some backlash, in fact i was pleased how little it is really for an old girl.
The holes are 3.1mm and a 3mm screw 'almost' fits so its not like its a country mile off size or coming out square
Yes I could drill them but that means another tool change and TBH the end mill makes a neater job out of them.
I will measure my slop and save up for the new bearings.
