If I may give you a tip: consider using a small file and a very small punch.
Glen has a tutorial on removing pins where he shows how to use them.
I've found that that method is much safer for the scales, and easier than using a drill press.
Aside from the obvious 'dancing drill bit' issue, if you drill slow (like you should) you get a lot of heat buildup, and this may also affect the scales.
I've had washers embed themselves in plastic scales because they got hot.
Punching out the pins is my preferred method these days.Til shade is gone, til water is gone, Into the shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath.
