Have you tried a drill bit in that size? Might destroy your bit but it will work for now.

The ideal thing would be to get a good set of punches.

Don't do that!

If you break the bit off in the pin you are going to be SOL. You will not be able to drill a hardened drill bit out of the aluminum handle without some serious work.

Just take the handle to Sears, Lowes, Home Depot, Etc. and GET THE RIGHT TOOL!!!!
