I have a Dremel tool that I got from my father. I've been looking into using it for drilling a clean hole. I just purchased a set of drill bits (sizes 61-80) for a Dremel tools. When I went to use it, I found that the chuck (or collett or whatever) did not go small emough to hold the small drills, so I am looking at buying a new chuck that can take the drills. The smallest bit goes down to 0.013"
I got an email this morning from a supplier, and I think I might have found what I need. All of this can be found at http://www.widgetsupply.com Once I get the thing working correctly, I'll drop a note about this. Fortunately, the pieces are pretty cheap. The shipping is a major part of the cost. Bill Leigh --- Chris Harris <cpharrisph...@hotmail.com> wrote: > I'll be teaching a pinhole class, constructing > cameras from Quaker oatmeal > canisters.
