I am in the midst of building a wedding card/gift box for my youngest daughter's upcoming wedding. I cut the lid off today and started looking at the latch and hinge's I had planned on using.
Question to those of you who work this tiny stuff. The screws that came with the latch and hinges measure about 1/16" in diameter and about 5/16" long!
My self centering "vix" bits don't go down that small to drill pilot holes. (I am mounting the hardware in "sapele".)
What drill bit should I use?
Any tricks for centering the bit and holding the latch and hinges in place while drilling accurate pilot holes?
Thanks for any suggestions.
Wayne
