Newell Coach Lug Nut Cover Upgrade and Some Polishing! (Should Have Done This Sooner)
What happens here
The creator moves into a garage setting. He secures one of the metal mounting brackets in a vise. He attaches the step drill bit to a heavy-duty corded drill (a DeWalt brand is visible) and applies some WD-40 lubricant to the drill bit and the area to be drilled. Wearing safety glasses, he carefully drills out the three designated holes on the bracket, one by one, using controlled pressure and continuous lubrication to prevent overheating and ensure a clean cut. After drilling, he shows the enlarged holes.
Goal: Modify brackets to fit wheel studs
