[TowerTalk] pipe tap drill size

[DGB]

#7 drill (.201)- is best.  13/64 (.203) is 2nd best or 7/32 (.218) can 
be used but treads will be weaker (less thread).

Don't have the proper hole size chart  for taps anymore.  I assume the hole size to be threaded 1/4 x 20 is less than 3/16''. Anyone have a chart showing the proper size.TNX
