Charles,
Use a hobby drill. (Not sure if that's the real name.) This is
basically a small aluminum dowel with a screw-adjustable interface so
you can insert whatever size bit you like. I've successfully used one
to enlarge bridge holes on several instruments and my woodworking
skills are virtually nil. They should sell them at any hobby store. I
got mine at Michael's. Only costs a couple of bucks.
Best,
Chris

Greetings List,
I am wanting to try a few slightly thicker strings for my fourth
course. I've consulted the experts so am comfortable with tension, etc,
but am unable to try a few of them due to a too narrow pair of holes
w Dor this course at the bridge.
Is there some foolproof way to slightly widen the holes without any
negative ramifications? Suggestions on tools, technique and if I should
just take it to a luthier are welcomed.
Thank you!
