But like any tool, it works best when you know the tricks. That’s why we’re breaking it all down in this week’s blog:
Step Drill Bit Tip Sheet.

Tip #1: Don’t forget to lube

A few drops of cutting oil = less friction, cooler temps, and longer bit life.

Tip #2: Go slow and stay in control

Higher speed = more heat = dull bits. Slow and steady makes the cut.

Tip #3: Let the tool do the work

You’re not trying to bench press your drill.

Use Light pressure and keep it steady.

Tip #4:Pilot punch for precision

If accuracy matters, mark your center with a punch first. No dancing bits allowed.

Tip #5: Clean your flutes

Catch you next Tuesday!
