Are you using Boelube? I only used it for the s.s. or really thick al. parts.
And there is a difference in drill bits, some work better/longer. I haven't tried
a bit sharpener yet, might be worth getting, I'm sure someone has and will
chime in.

Find anything you can to lubricate the bit. Boelube, Lots of oil,
Cooltool, something. Then use lots of pressure and get the cutting
done. SS work hardens. If you get it hot, it gets harder, so
you have to be aggressive.
Have fun.

I'm wearing out my #40 drill
bits pretty quickly trying to drill the #40
holes between the skin
and stainless counterbalance. Any hints as to what
type of drill bit
I should get in order to knock this out quicker would be
great.
Thanks.

I have a Drill Doctor and it works really well to sharpen dull bits. There
may be others which work as well.

Bob,
Great photos! Thanks for sharing. I really like those modified ribs on the sub-panel
you made - I did some snooping. Are you a machinist? That's awfully nice
work.
