Ok, most of this stems from a brand new crappy drill.. Yea, it is a Craftsman and has more slop than the smaller harbor freight one it replaced. Anyway, after a really nice glue up of walnut/maple checkerboard, I blew it on drilling. Damn thing was perfect going in, but way off when it left the blank.. Well, I had enough to make one more so I sliced it up and drilled them by themselves. I have threadded rod that I spray my blanks on (lacquer) sI set one of them up with a washer and a 7mm tube. I used gorilla glue and just stacked as I glued and when I was done I aligned the bits up then clamped it with a nut. This appears to of worked perfect, but it is still drying. So, is this old news or a really good idea?? There is no way I can drill it straight enough with my press (with bradpoints)
