Most Sheffields like this only need a bit of enlargement. I then put in a 1/8 aluminum pop rivet and pop it with the riveter. Tap the broken-off mandrel out with a punch and dremel-drum sand the head off the rivet to the tang and do same on the other side. Makes a tight-fitting aluminum bushing with a 1/16 hole!
