I'm not sure what you mean by "dingle berry hone tool" but as long as you use a lubricant (I've always used diesel) it's not difficult. Try to keep your drill running at about mid speed and use smooth, even strokes up and down the cylinder and it should turn out just fine. An even "criss cross" pattern means you did it right.
