How can those rings be set? does it work with a metal tube and a little

No, ST. Use a small press. Need not be a precision manufactured thing,
just a bit of bar-stock with an axle through the end, and a flat surface upon
which to place your work-piece. Using a hammer will surely damage the bits!
Also, if somebody knows a inch/metric PCB drill conversion table (with the
#), please let me know. it isn't that important as i can easily calculate it
myself, but if you know a url...<<
If you mean the American "Drill-numbering system", it cannot be
"calculated". These numbers are quite random, and the ONLY thing "regular" is that the
size INCREASES as the number DECREASES. A "Chart" with the diameters in both
inch and metric is surely available. If I had a scanner, I'd find one and
send it to you, but I do NOT have a scanner, and, as there would be THOUSANDS
of characters (#'s) to type, and I am very, very lazy, sorry!
