How can I drill clean holes for flip switches and such? Every time I've tried, I get un-even cuts at the top of the drills. The holes from warmoth look laser-cut, in comparison. Do I just need a drill press?
If you put a piece of masking tape over the location you are going to drill the hole will be much cleaner.
Yes, a drill press would be nice, but not absolutly necessary if you have a steady hand.
If your drilling through something and not just into something, it also helps to put a piece of scrapwood on the other side and that keeps the drill from splintering the wood where it exits.
Both Excellent Tips....I"ve used them both as well. :icon_thumright: ...... Also use Brand New Bits when drilling....they need to be sharp,sharp,sharp.....
