  1. wow...thanks soapbarstrat! As a brand new member to the board (but not new to guitar building), I feel so welcomed now!
  2. As small as the increments in drill bit sizes are, it is possible that two sizes right next to each other will allow the screw to thread but only one would be the correct size and so I'd rather not risk using the wrong size. I was hoping tht someone would know for sure what sizes to use, rather than trying to guess...regardless of how "educated" the guess may be.
  3. I sure hope someone can help and as soon as possible as I've already wasted a week and a half trying to get this info. But PLEASE be sure your info is accurate!! I CAN'T mess this up!!! I'm trying to find out the size of the hole(s) I need to drill for the wood screw/old style (80's) Floyd bridge posts. Not the modern bushing/insert design but the old wood screws that go directly into the wood. I believe it involves two holes, one counterbored because it seems that the threads of the screw require one size and just under the head of the screw is a flat "collar" arear that looks to be a bit larger in diameter than the threads are. PLEASE...can anyone help with both the diameter and the depth of these holes? A step-by-step guide would be great, too. I've installed plenty of the bushing/insert type, but this is my first with the old style. Thanks!!!!!
