Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] PCB drill recommendations

2005-07-16 by Bill Maxwell

It's probably not useable, at least by conventional drill bits. It would 
probably be limited to the smallest dental burrs or whatever they are 
called.  My handpieces are packed away or may still be at my Canberra house, 
so it may take some time to find them.  As somebody else pointed out, 
mounting the handpiece will be problematic - and I hadn't even thought of 
possible problems with the bearings.
