And if one doesn't have a drill press or a milling machine? I just have a pen-vice. Spend $85.00 Canadian and get one. For what you do its indespensible. You can put a sanding drum in it and all kinds of wonderful things that speed up the construction process. http://busybeetools.ca/cgi-bin/picture...
