Gloves with a spinning tool..big no no.
Also use a clamp. I lost a Finger tip after a drill bit “caught” and spun the work piece around.

Thanks for the safety reminder I totally spaced it, your absolutely right

[@carloscordova2404]

Nice idea. Your drill bit cuts well. Do you sharpen them ?

[@idahofabricator8710]

Thanks for the question Carlos, I use the Drill doctor to sharpen them, I also use cutting fluid.

What is a good brand of drill bits that will actually last ?

[@idahofabricator8710]

Tim I use consolidated Toledo drill bits their magnum series super premium made in the USA they last a long time very happy with the bits

[@smokeshow973]

Awsome tip is it me or is that drill bit speed a little to high

[@idahofabricator8710]

The slowest speed I could get on my vintage drill press is 450 so I use plenty of cutting fluid seems to work OK
