I bought one of those Armor 1 1/2" thick predrilled tables from Rockler. Turns out the holes were about 1/32" shy of being 3/4 (sorry, don't speak metric). A true 3/4" dowel would not go in the hole, but a HD metric 3/4" dowel fits. I ended up using a 3/4" metal working twist bit, and ran it through a few of the holes, came out fine. My drill bit was a cheapie, from a show, and has about 3-4" useable depth.
You might consider doing every other hole, to keep options open.
