Re: How do you Drill Them?

2008-12-16 by Ben

I use the Dermel tool and Dermel drill press. Theres others too Dermel
is not the only one around.  I have drilled many a thousands of holes
from .7mm to 2mm.  Most of the time if a bit breaks it is because I
allowed the board to move, that snaps the bit off real fast.

I use a shop vac with a good filter in it to suck up the dust.

One of these days I will get my CNC drilling machine done.
