I guess I was lucky not to know too much before I started drilling mine.
They came out just fine, but I benefitted from having a good old fashioned
American made drill press that is older than I am.
I just picked up this drill press.

It looks and feels very heavy duty. Ran very smoothly when I picked it up.
I really don't expect the spindle or table to deflect much. If I hadn't found
this one at a reasonable price, I wouldn't be attempting to do this. This
project is going to have wait until the weekend.
Any thoughts on how big to make the clearance holes for 7/16" studs.
