Re: upside down drill lube--help? ALL all

NOT A LUBE!!!

What you want is a cutting fluid!

Certainly NOT Moly or graphite. You want MORE, not LESS friction!

If you dip your drill in normal cutting oil and then drill quickly

it'll work. Like others have said, graduated sizes will make it easier.

Once you get the first hole through, you can apply the oil to the top

surface and it'll drain the right way.

A cup and an acid brush work well for applying cutting fluids.
