Just out of curiosity, why not paint the board after drilling? That way any
rust-proofing in the paint will cover the whole thing, instead of missing
the insides of the holes? Or do you loose grounding that way...? And I
suppose you run the risk of getting too much paint in the hole, making it
too tight of a fit. But then you can file that out... Details, details,
details...
