The connector sleeve on the upper section of my laser mast cracked, so I've drilled out the rivets and removed it. The existing hole is larger than 3/16th, which is the rivet size I expected to use. It seems like 7/32. Can anyone confirm if this is standard? I'm not the original owner, so it's possible it was modified.
Second question - the new connector sleeve is incredible snug around the mast, which seems like a good thing, However, it's virtually impossible to align the hole in the sleeve to the hole in the mast. If I can't get it aligned, how much structural integrity would I lose by just drilling a new hole?
Thanks!
