had to drill some one inch holes (several) in 1/2=E2=80=9D plate.  Using =
a drill press so that helps... I wouldn=E2=80=99t try a 1=E2=80=9D hole =
with a hand drill ! Didn=E2=80=99t really think a hole saw was the right =
way so I just stepped up starting with a 3/8=E2=80=9D bit then up to =
3/4. then up to 1=E2=80=9D... Worked fine.. lots of oil, took my time... =
but while I was bored (pardon the pun) I was thinking about the best =
steps to use...   when drilling large diameter in thick steel is there =
an accepted increment you should use ??  1/4=E2=80=9D increments ??  =
1/8=E2=80=9D ??      job is done but I was never taught this I just =
kinda used what I thought would work.   Suggestions ??

thanks
John
