Drill Press Advice Please
OK - I have a set of FGD rails that need drilling. I have an old - ancient really - drill and a generic 'strap any drill into it' drill press. I have no table or vice for it. I have a short rail I have been practicing with and it is just not stable enough holding it by hand for me to drill these holes. They either come out off center, not round, or worse I break the bits.
What would you all recommend for drilling rails? I would like to be able to use it for other items too - that is why I was looking at a drill press.
I have looked at Lowes and Home Depot - the presses there all look like the chuck is way too large to accurately hold the tiny drills needed for the rails. Help!
And thanks in advance - I really appreciate your advice.
