    I don't remember the names of the bits i bought, but Bob (the retired machinest) pointed me to them. Short and very stable. He should pop in and answer you. As for size, 1/16 and 5/64 is the main one I use. I also use a centering bit to help with drilling out pins. Bought those at H.F., but the good bits did not come from H.F. bought mine online for a couple bucks a bit.

    Back up your work with wood when drilling. Cuts down on splintering on the way thru.

    Wait! Maybe it was Geeser, not Bob.
