Default RE: How are you drilling your props
Ditto...

I ordered mine from Tower....

If I were to drill them, I'd be using a drill press with a perfectly level table to keep the drill straight. Would even check with a square to be sure..

Hand drilling is a no-no... Use a reamer instead...

Cheers

or go with a tapered reamer http://shopping.yahoo.com/indoor-liv...tapered+reamer that can be any size
I use the Fox reamer and it is very nice and good quality. Just make sure you start one side then go around to the other side and that keeps the hole straight. Works great.
