Scooterotica

Seem to recall someone mentioning these on a previous thread. From Maplins IIRC. Can't find them. Anyone help? For drilling out holes/jets in carbs.

Boyes do them on there model building / hobby stand

It was probably me Dapper I manged to find them on the on line store http://www.maplin.co.uk/20-piece-miniat ... sets-11891 for PWK jets the number on the jet seems to equate to the dia. of the hole i.e 125 = 1.25mm. Don't know if that is the case with dellorto though

Thanks Coaster. Can they be used in a Dremel, or do you need a special chuck of some kind?


Belay that question Coaster. I checked on the question section and someone already asked and the answer was "Yes."

Actually I don't think they will fit in a standard dremel chuck. The dremel takes fixed diameter shanks (3mm?) and obviously the drills vary. For the very small ones you will probably need a hand chuck (available from model shops) but for the sizes needed for doing main jets i.e. 1mm or larger I have managed to hold them in a battery operated drill. Take the hole out in gradual incremments and the drill will simply follow the line of the existing hole.

Little bit cheaper in halfords if you haven't already bought them
