I'm not able to fit the 3mm rods inside their bushings as described on p162 of the build manual. My calipers suggest the rod OD is 3.04mm, while the bushing ID is 3.01mm. I've tried the drill method suggested in the manual, but I can't do the first step of getting the rods inserted, despite applying a fair bit of force and some heat to the bushing. Are there any suggested workarounds? Thank you!

Thanks Alastair - I saw that but though my issue was different because the rod itself is oversized, while the holes in both the bushing and housing are correctly sized. And am concerned about the resulting tolerance on the bushings if I drill them out. I've ordered some replacement 3mm rods so I'll try that first
