Guys/Gals,
I've still not come to terms on how best, and most economically, to drill my pen blanks.
What is your tool of choice? Is a quill travel on a drill press of 2 3/8" enough? Besides using a drill press for "drilling" (Ha!), what else could I use it for?
Do any of you use the lathe for drilling? What about a hand drill? What drill guide do you use?
This is my final (I hope) obstacle in my pen turning journey to the dark side. I'm getting frustrated as I tend to get a little anal at times, overthinking things.
What's the best bang for my buck?
Thanks,
