[QUOTE="moonbase, post: 1129787, member: 178786"] If using a hand held drill you could use a centre punch on the pole to give a surface guide to stop the drill bit wandering or some thick tape? Alternatively, bash it with a club hammer to flatten the pole a little bit and there is less chance of the bit wandering. As the pole section with the anti spin bolt(s) is going below ground level the cosmetic appearance is irrelevant. If you know anyone who has a welding machine and will do mates rates you could weld a couple of steel flaps on to the pole section that is to go below ground and avoid the drilling. [/QUOTE]
