What size drill bit for recessed brake nut?
Going to drill a fork originally intended for a nutted brake to swap it to a recessed style fit.
Anyone know offhand what size drill bit is the tool for the job?

I don't, but I'm responding to say that not all recessed nuts are the same OD. Maybe immaterial to you with an older steel fork, but as an example I think Reynolds used a smaller OD nut on their forks.
