You can do it even easier. None of this pi$$in& around with bit sizes.

BUY A HELICOIL KIT!

It has everything you need, the helicoils, the drillbit and the tap.

It'll cost you about $50, although I have bought for a lot less on the 'bay.

After you're done, you can buy more loose coils to do more holes.

I would agree...but you get what you can in a one horse town. not all kits come with the drill bit. not all places order kits in...just common sizes for the bulk racks. the pack of inserts are a varity of sizes with other only being in a common size.

I have been to 2 countys looking for the kit with a bit..no kit for a 1/4-28 to be had.. with or with out the drill bit.

so now I am looking around on the bay now. amozon may have something if I get that far into looking.
