UGGGHHHH so I'm trying to drill the pins out of the tube sockets for the Millett I'm building. I've done it before, and I won't say it was easy, but I got them drilled with less trouble than this. Anyway, I broke off a tiny (1/16") bit inside of the socket pin and now it seems like I'm dulling the crap out of every drill bit I try, prob cause I'm having to drill thru that broken off piece of drill bit...kinda feels like I'm trying to drill into diamond or something. Oh, I should note that I'm using a cordless drill and not a drill press. I really don't want to spend the money for a press right now, but I'm afraid I may have to..especially since the guy I'm building this for wants the top on the case too, which of course will require a hell of a lot more drilling than one without. WAHHHH
any ideas?
