Can standard 1/8” shank PCB drill bits fit in a dental drill?  Are there adapters to fit them if not?

Just a super cheap one from harbor freight. A much better option would be dental gear. Seriously, most dentists are also home machinists! You need at least 30k rpm for dental mills and old bits might be free!  My dentist was super suprised I loved machining. We talked for an hour straight!

What kind of air drill?  Those are some impressive RPMs.

Yea, just using the feeds and speeds calculator, I typically go as fast (rpms) as I can manage. Of course I have an air drill for pcbs. 56k rpms max.
