The drill bit is usually a rotary cutting tool, often multi-point. The bit is pressed against the work-piece and rotated at rates from hundreds to thousands of revolutions per minute. This forces the cutting edge against the work-piece, cutting off chips (swarf) from the hole as it is drilled. =Challenges= =Approaches= QhpOg186fks * [[https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3585407|Thingiverse: Cordless drill press attachment]] =References= * [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drilling|Wikipedia: Drilling]]
