Drilling Pcb's

2004-08-26 by Nick

Hello everyone.My name is Nick from Sydney Aust. My first post to 
this group.So this is probably a dumb question to you guys.I have 
managed to etch my first board after a few failures, but I came up 
with a real beauty(I think anyway).I drilled a board last week and i 
nearly went blind tryin to line up the bloody drill to the pads.So 
is there a way i can use a mirror or something to give me a better 
view of tiny drill to tiny pads. I am using a dremell mounted on a 
stand .The drilling is easy but lining up whilst looking through the 
magnifying glass is hard.Any tips would be appreciated.Thanks.
