Not a wood working question.
I need a 5/8" hole in a piece of steel. I did drill a 33/64th" hole but, unfortunately, it will not work. I'm reluctant to order a $20.00 bit and pay for shipping for about ten seconds worth of drilling to open up this hole.
I do have a lot of masonry, carbide tipped, drills. Would it be disastrous to use one of those to open up this hole? I don't care if I ruin the bit.
