plode 0 Posted June 20, 2013 I use a center punch and then drill. I also keep one of these in my car. If you ever get trapped in your car and need to shatter a window, this will do it. I used to keep it in my fire gear when I was a volunteer and used it quite often. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shane45 807 Posted June 20, 2013 A 1/16 center drill has a 3/16 body. Doesnt sound like that would work for what your up to unless the center its seldf is enough to get depth. If I needed a clean hole of that size I might just use a short end mill. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
remixer 1,645 Posted June 27, 2013 The center drill looks perfect. the Cutting tip looks like it will just make it.. I know this weekend when i test it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
