What a great way to make replacement parts for antiques at a reasonable price.
Having to file or drill a hole out is less of a bother than finding that it is too big. Going exact or even a little undersize sounds like the best precaution against having to reorder the part.

Spending $20 on a reasonably good micrometer (not the professional ones, just a good one) so they can manufacture it to the precise diameter can eliminate the need to do any drilling or filing.
