Using MM drill bits for Caballero Kit

[phsv]

I wanted to find out if I would see a big difference if I use the Millimeter equivalent for this kit. The website suggest 10mm and 12mm to replace 15/32 and 25/64 drills.

Thank you.

15/32 = 11.9063mm

25/64 = 9.9219mm

Accounting for a little drill bit runout the 10 and 12mm bits should work. The hole might be a little tight. Try it out first on a piece of waste wood instead of a $$ blank.

Thanks for the conversion. I noticed that you all have a conversion chart after your post. I appreciate the feedback. Will make sure to do this on a scrap of wood before the final piece.
