how do the professional shops do this?
especially lining up the drill/press to drill a proper hole

I know of at least one "professional" shop here in PA that i'd recogmend
whole heartily against! They did this repair in the van.....and broke off a
drill bit in my head....
Lets just say they never "Fully repaired" it. Now it's getting the attention
it needs : )
