They got really hot and expanded while I was doing it, so I had to let them cool and run the drill through again to get the right diameter. Used a sharp countersink bit to take off the fash round the edge:

Then inserted them the same way I took the old ones out, running a line of superglue round the inside of the hole beforehand.

Looks fine - I'd have preferred much slimmer ones, but the moral of the story is to choose yr tuners before you drill yr neck. Once again, learning the hard way. On the plus side, I now have a lifetime's supply of tuner bushings weighing down the shelf in my shed...

The old F-tuner holes are just about hidden.

So now the only thing stopping me completing this is lunch! Sun is shining - outdoor photoshoot coming up
