 | How to drill out tuners for big strings? The best thing I can think of around here is the little conical tips that fit on the Dremel mototool, but I'm wondering if anyone else has a different method. And have you figured out how to keep grinding castoff from getting down into the mechanism of a locking tuner? I have some locking Schallers that don't seem to want to take anything larger than a .060" string, and I also can't figure out how to get them apart to get out the metal flakes from grinding. |

| I had to do this to my ESP F-300 when it tuned it down to F#... I happen to have a drill bit set that were labeled with gauge sizes. So I just picked out the next size up from the string I was using and got out the power drill... No problems... But if you don't have a drill bit set like that you could just eye-ball the drill bits next to the string to pick out one... |
