Drilling large holes in thin metal using a twist bit!

<< < (4/4)

Biggles,

have you tried my method? It isn't dangerous, it isn't "a rag round the quill of a drill", it's a rag between the drill bit and the work piece! I said that this was a method for drilling a hole, if you have the right sized bit, all you need is a bit of rag, which on a Sunday afternoon can get the job done!

Regards, Matthew

I saw this trick on a Youtube video a few years ago, i tried it and works flawlessly and it is perfectly safe.. other than Andrews conclusion on how this was discovered I would like to know what Nit-Wit decided to toss a rag on the spot where the drill was going to bore into.... such is life.

Anthony.
