Other than very carefully, how does one go about drilling very small holes, holes on the order of 0.020 - 0.040 diameter? How do you chuck something that small? And I suspect that sharpening drills t

How thick is the material, what type, hardness, I have a very small drill press and small tooling vises to hold small parts. I made a jig to hold jets in the old carb days. Took the drills to a place

I'm no machinist (hey, Rich, how about some help here?), but I would think you want pretty high speed for small bits. But I could be full of shit. Definitely want the "right" lube, I'd think. And thi

Printed circuit board (PCB) shops routinely drill holes that size and even smaller; they use solid carbide drills with a standardized 1/8" shank. You can find these drills on eBay now & then. Use a

I use a a Dremel type tool with small bits like you describe. Set the bit as far into the chuck as you can. Start slow until the bit begins to cut, then increase your speed. When you begin to apply p

For drilling main jets, we had the best luck with holding the drill a pin vice, the jet in a hand held clamp (vice grip) and drilling by hand very slowly. ____________________________________________

Always drill undersize and check the resulting hole with the shank of the drill size you want. Jim _______________________________________________ Land-speed mailing list http://autox.team.net/mailma

Mayf, Get yourself a couple pin vices. You can chuck up the collet in your drill press or use it by hand. Those small bits don't like the bend so the drill press holds it straight the best. Doug in b

Mayf I'll add one more to the list. The single greatest reason for breaking small drill bits is ones inability to sense DOWNFORCE! Your sense of touch is drastically reduced by any kind of drill pres

Mike's comment on sensing pressure is spot on. Lube is also very important. Many years ago, I got a great tip about a wonderful lube to use on drill bits, especially small ones. Try using Elmer's glu
