Just successfully drilled a 37/64" (14.7mm) hole in an 18mm round piece of Masur birch riddled with voids and bark inclusions.
Just enough meat left to make a full-sized gentlemen's pen. I applied a few coats of CA to strengthen the wood, and was very careful to center it in my collet chuck, and drilled incrementally with several drill sizes at slow speed, removing chips often.
