is there a name for that tool?
i have two pre-drilled metal control panels with holes too far apart for the sanwa style joysticks i have and need to drill it.
was going to use a bit to make a hole just big enough for the carriage bolts to snuggly fit and grip the sides.
but if i can make the holes square that would be ideal.


I know what the tool is and what others call it but i'm not finding it anywhere and think i'll have to make one myself.

This is still a bit too big for #10 carriage bolts. I had to grind it down at the end to taper it more.

My solution cost five bucks and a minute or two on the grinder.

I can use the rest of the 400 some odd dollars I saved on beer.
