Learnt that in the battle of skin vs steel wool, steel wool wins - cut my left thumb.
What general area are you? Off Hardgrave/Dornoch?

I have a 4" column with 5x3" braised on, was going to be non-modular and have a plate tree.
But the fact you have pulled this off with little experience is good news, I think I might cut this sucker up
Your really ripping through this build! very inspiring!

What you need is a properly sharpened drill bit.
Or if you want to go a slightly dodgier way you can use a spade bit.
Only use in a bench drill tho, with the workpiece clamped down tightly (minimum 2 clamps) and close to the hole you are going to make.
Gentle pressure and away you go.

I would make it big enough to have a basket in there if it was me and have the tee a reasonable distance above that for suitable vapour infusion. not just for gin though, any infusion you want really. :handgestures-thumbupleft:
