Weird question - I'm filling in drilled holes that were drilled too large for the application. I don't have access to a welder, but the piece in question is thin mild steel about 3/32" thick and just a very small part that attaches to a larger piece with some very tiny screws and threads (about the same size screws that are used in frames of reading glasses). The hole that was drilled and threaded is 3/16" diameter whereas I need something like 1/32". How would you go about filling these? The catch is that I'm going to need to re-drill through whatever I fill for the 1/32" screws. I have looked into threaded plugs but I don't think a 3/16" plug with a threaded 1/32" inner hole exists. Thanks for any help!
That’s a tough one. Without welding I don’t know what would work. Possibly bevel the hole a little bit and fill with JB Weld and redrill. You didn’t say if the screws will be sheet metal or machine but sheet metal screws would probably break out the JB Weld. That’s about all I can think of. Thanks for watching

I used Fusor Metal Bonding Adhesive. I have several videos on this product and I’ll have an in depth video coming out in the future about it. Thanks for watching
I would be concerned that over time some residual Flux would cause paint adhesion problems. I don't like Bondo over slide hammer holes either but I wouldn't lead over holes in a rocker panel by the same token.
That’s a valid concern. If it’s cleaned with water and a brush it will take care of it. I’ve been using it over 30 years and have never had an issue. Thanks for watching
Great instructional video and old school technique!
Thanks for the video best and most helpful I’ve seen thank you

What was that first glue you used? Thanks.
I used Fusor 108b. Thanks for watching
What are the adhesive's that you have used and recommend for body panels?

I wonder if JB weld would be ok also? 😊 JR
I don’t see why not. Should work. Thanks for watching
