You could always have described it as an oiling point. 😉

Nice job on the repair. If anyone ever notices it, you could tell them that was where the compartment for the iridium phase balancer mass pellet (0.0078 grams) was closed up.

Another option would have been to have made a rivot. Made from the same material is almost impossible to see as well after being peened in place.

If you want to see how it can be made completely invisible check out ‘clickspring’ on youtube. He does it often – not as a repair but as part of the build – although maybe not on anything particularly load-bearing.

All the same, your repair looks good and it may not be noticeable unless searched for. Might even disappear more when you get it really polished up.

You can always come back to it at some later point in time – and even replace it if you must – but carry on and get the first build done dusted and operational would be my mantra.

My wife used to have a cookbook by Monica Dickens, which extolled the virtues and means of covering up boo boos.

If you can't make it right, make it bright! (Told me by a winner of the Duke of Edinburgh Award! )
