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.

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.

Do not archive --> RV10-List message posted by: "Andrew Johnson" 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.

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. John -------- #40572 QB Fuselage, wings finished.
