I am on issue 87 and see that I need a 0.8mm drill bit to drill the 'bitts'. Before I order some from UK does anyone know if I am going to need some other sizes? With the huge task of rigging looming I want to order in all the sizes I am likely to need.

Hi Simon.
What I normally do is get a set of micro drill bits.
These go from 0.3mm to 1.6mm.
