To clarify this, pegs will tell you what the width is at the collar (a viola peg is typically ~9mm I think). In case it's not obvious: you don't want
the collar all the way up to the hole, so the hole should be a fair bit smaller than the "collar" width. You will also be shaving the peg somewhat so
it will be smaller.
