  5. Very good info here. I am not a metal expert but I have learned that when drilling hard metals like SS the best results are obtained when you run your drill at low speed, apply very little pressure and use cutting oil for lubrication and to keep temp low. This method will save your drill bits. Also at lower speed the bouncing will be reduced. Waiting for TJG report. vaccum
