In aircraft we "stop drill" by drilling a small hole at each end of the crack, but welding is not an option there. However we do the same with plexaglass windows. When drilling plexiglass though you

The ROHN catalog is very specific about not drilling galvanized tower legs. They don't even want the bolt holes drilled out. If the bolt doesn't fit they direct the builder to use "taper pin punches"

Yup. Brand new ROHN 45-G. That double hot dipped galvanizing fills holes, and leaves lots of little sharp things to poke holes in tender body parts. They tell you right in the manual about enlarging
