Match Drilling and Tapping Holes

When you must drill two or more holes to attach two parts together, the alignment of the first hole is easy. Getting the second hole to align can be difficult if you want close-fitting clearance holes. It only gets worse from there. The problem is solved by using the procedure illustrated in this article.
