Thread: Linear rail question

Damn! New problem! According to drawings my linear rails use m6 bolts for fastening. Got my z axis front plate flattened and tapped. Turns out the holes in the rails are m6 but the counterbore are 9.5mm so I can't fit m6 bolthead. Should have measured first x)
Here comes the question!
Try to increase size of counterbore even though the stearingpin won't reach the center hole at first? This could create of center holes...?
Or should I drill my tapped m6 holes and use something like helicoil to reduce the holes to m5?
What would you have done?
