Just about 30 seconds with a professional die grinder. I think it would be less than 5 minutes with the average drill and sandpaper roll.
I also had a friend bore my TI extender with a lathe. He didn't get it bored enough so I finished up with my die grinder. Oh my god, titanium is tough stuff. It's well worth boring the aluminum adapter and going 17500's. The boring comes out ok with a sandpaper roll. Grinding with bits is not very pretty but will work.
Hello, this only my second post on CPF. I have a V11R with AA extender on order, with the plan to bore the extender for use with 17500s. I don't have access to professional equipment (but I have a Dremel tool with many accessories, and a 'basic' Dewalt 14.4V cordless drill.) Can you offer any specific instruction or links to instructions/guidance to accomplish this task? (I.E. A particular Dremel tool attachment, or technique for sandpaper on a drill bit – how to affix, what type of paper/grit etc.?) ALSO, any caveats to using a 17500 battery in terms of their ability to fit in the V11R? THANKS VERY MUCH! (the editing options for CPF in my browser will not allow me to hit "enter" and add new lines, so this is all one paragraph )
