I’ve got a CNC project that is going to need small (1/16, 5/64, 3/32, etc) holes. I can buy carbide drills in those sizes w/ 1/8’ shanks but they are expen$sive.
I was wondering if it’s possible to chuck up an adjustable chuck so as to use regular drill bits. Something like this pic with a straight (not Morse Taper) shaft. Since all metal it should work with the depth setting block.
Speeds would be dialed way back for the drilling operations.
Thoughts?
Edit: Carbide not Cobalt drills.
