if you think so, there's

#45@0.082, or 2.15mm@0.0846 for #7
3/32@0.0938, or 2.4mm@0.0945 for #8
2.75mm@0.1083 for #9
3.3mm@0.1299, or 3.4mm@0.1339 for #10

Available - somewhere else... <G> Surely there's room for experimentation
here, depending on capping material.

I like to drive them with a little epoxy, which tends to lubricate and
soften up the hole some, so Pianotek's sizes seem to work OK for me, even
in the laminated cap.

I've got an indexes with these sizes.  I like the epoxy "driving fluid."  To
date I've used nothing in the holes.  It's worth a few test fits.
Thanks, Ron
