Default Chamfer

Building -6 aileron bellcrank- plans call for hole that receives bearing to be chamfered. What does the RV community use to chamfer such a hole (3/4). Seems like the options are limited and $$. On a scrap piece I used a deburring tool on edge with decent results. Suggestions appreciated.

Thanks,

Joe

Just take your de-burring tool and run it around the circumference... finish with a little sandpaper.

Drop the bearing in and take a look. No $$ involved.
