What I have ordered this for?
I have ordered a load of fasteners from the local engineering suppliers and I also ordered a 13mm and an 18mm drill bit.
What have I ordered the 18mm for I can't remember now!!
I knew why when I asked for it!!
The 13mm is for 1/2" suspension bolts, i can remember that!!

what I bought an 18mm drill bit to drill a hole in my head to stop me being forgetful but I forgot what I needed it for?
That might be it but I have completely forgotten!!

for drilling 18mm holes?
The mental gymnastics a landlord will employ to justify immoral actions is clinically fascinating. Just because something is legal doesn't make
it moral.

Call me old fashioned, but I bought a 1/2" drill for that size.

I assumed by the time the holes were painted they would be too small if I used a 1/2" or shall I swap my 18mm for a 1/2" instead?

I'd not take a coat of paint into consideration, use a 1/2 drill

bit...

Are you using 20mm thread top ball joints?? If so drilling 18mm and tapping the same.
If it looks wrong it probably is wrong.
