345desoto,
1. 29/64 2. You do not drill a hole for male threads, just thread the pipe. To thread a hole to fit that pipe drill it with a 45/64 3. Use an "R" drill for this one 4. Use a 7/16 drill on this one Have Fun Scholman

Here's a good reference chart for tap hole drill sizes:http://www.championscrew.com/machine_screws.htm
You can print it and keep it handy in the tool box. I printed mine on card stock and put it in a document protector sleeve.
