How do I ream the inside diameter of PVC pipe to 1-1/2″ from 1-7/16″ w/o a drill press?
Friday, September 18th, 2009Do I buy a drum sander bit and do it with my hand drill? Or should I use a spade drill bit? (but I’ll have to hold the piece in my hand and if I slip, ouch!) I don’t own a drill press or a vise and can’t afford one.
I own: dremel (and some small bits that go with it), power drill (drill bits), and hand tools.
I have a male adapter (slip on one end, male threads on the other end) PVC coupler for 1″ sched 40 PVC pipe. The inside diameter of the slip end is about 1-7/16 “, and I need it to be 1-1/2″. (BTW: This is for a toy I’m making for my daughter, so it doesn’t matter that it will lose its original strength). The wall thickness is thick enough to accomodate the larger hole.
