I think what I will try of all the good sugestions is the 1/16th inch hole with a bicycle intertube patch over it. I will put a pin hole in the patch. I want to make sure that the interior end grain in my bulk head is sealed. Is the best plan to drill a 1/8th inch and then fill with epoxy and then re-drill 1/16th of an inch? Thanks again to all for the help, todd
