hi there folks,
This is mainly about my old GMC rather cheap drill press, maybe close on 15 years old now. I am attempting to drill and clean out a socket in a solid guitar body for pickups to sit in. Firstly I drill a series of holes, then attempt to chisel them out a bit. Then use a small router planing bit, to do the final clean. Sure it jumps around lot, but it is somewhat successful. But now my chuck just keeps falling off the drill press shaft. Will not stay on at all.
So perhaps I am looking at updating my drill press, shall see what is out there. And also any ideas for cleaning out holes like I am trying to do. I am not set up with jigs and templates etc to use a plunge router to do this.
A hole might be say about 20mm under the surface of the guitar.
Regards, Paul
