    +1, drill the holes while the scale material is flat and square. Drill both holes at the same time if you can. I like the idea of clamping both scales together to do this. Make sure your drill press is also squared up. Since most common ordinary drill bits make a triangular hole, drill slightly undersized and ream the hole to round at the correct size for the pin stock. Then there is no wobbly hole.
