high speed drill
Posted: Fri Feb 17, 2012 11:02 pm
The drill I am looking at getting is 2800 RPM... but that's the fastest I've
found for a "reasonably" priced one... I saw a couple at 3200 and 3600 at over
3 times the price. The 13,000 - 17,000 rpm drill is only $85 from Aircraft
Spruce... just doesn't seem right.
