    With drill bits that small get the best ones you can find! I have a very small center punch to help start the drill where I want it. I am a firm believer in Ballistol for many things. One thing I use it for a lot is as a cutting fluid. It works great on small holes in steel. Check it out at ballistol.com . It also works great on all your leather products including vintage shell strops.
    Can you figure out a way to take the slop out of your drill press? That will help with all your drilling.

    I use a Dremel with a sand paper wheel. I finally discovered the trick with this method. Once you are close to having it come lose, use no pressure at all. If there is any pressure on the Dremel when it comes loose, it will skid the sand paper barrel onto the scales every time.
