Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] drill press for PCB

2010-12-30 by Andrew Villeneuve

I've had very good results using a Dremel 220 drill press for PCBs.  I also
have one of those mini chuck adapters so I can use normal drill bits.  It
works well while taking up minimal space on my desk, and I haven't broken
any bits yet.
