Hey Can you assist with whether I'm doing this right? I keep breaking bits and it is getting expensive So, using both flexshaft and drillpress, trying to drill a hole through two sautered pieces of copper (15 gauge each) using a new drill bit with pepe lube I start with mimimal pressure and the bit will work for a short period of time, then I stop and add more pepe lube, but when I start again and see no drilled copper bits coming out of the hole, I press harder and the bit breaks Any ideas? Comment from : Edwin Warner

Hello! I hope you can help me I'm trying to create a hope in a metal pendant and have tried several tools workout success It's not a thick metal whatsoever but it must be harder metal than the tools can handle Would you suggest using a drill with the proper bit, at this point? Or, do I need to invest in a hole punch that is made for steel? Thanks!! Comment from : Elle Bee

Hi!, thanks for the video I keep breaking the bits! Is there a recommended rpm for drilling? I use a Dremel If i dont press on the bit, it doesn't make the hole and start to make the metal super hot for the friction And if i press too much i break the bit! Any advice? Thanks!

Hey do you know any good ways of drilling a "pin" through stingray leather cord/bracelet, 6mm thick? I have been glueing on clasps for a while, but its just not working well with glue to make these bracelets, I think I must use some sort of "pin clasp" - any tips? I can't zoom in well enough but I know on StingHDcom they have very well made clasps, that I believe use a pin and custom clasp systemhow could I find something similar, for making bracelets thanks! Comment from : KingExecutive

I'm having so much trouble drilling holes, it never seems to go through all the way What am I doing wrong? Comment from : Nicole Degand

Hi John, your video has always been very helpful to me I am drilling the jump ring holes, but there is always burring on the back of the hole, which makes me frustrated how can I get a clean hole? Is this because the drill bit not sharp enough? Does anything else matter here? Thank you very much! Comment from : keke shen

can i hold the item in the palm of my hand and trill? Comment from : JRR III

Do you recommend drilling into a soft service (AKA the block of wood) rather than using a drill press, which will have an open space behind the piece? Comment from : Charlotte Watson

I see you are not using anything to lubricate the bit with prior to drilling, I have always been told to use a wax or silicone lubricant, is it not necessary? Comment from : Chelle

thanks for this video!!! i have been drilling in other ways and i have been bad, very bad, even with injuries and cuts, again thanks for this video Comment from : profedemus
