Ordered some center drill bits and boy what a suprise when they arrived. Oh well. Guess I have some center drills for micro work :smile-big:

You can still get some use out of those. You only need something big enough to drill a small hole big enough for the chisel tip on your final drill bit. And you only have to drill deep enough so that when the chisel tip hits bottom, the edges are cutting the full width of the hole.

It may work for a 7 mm but not near big enough for a Cigar pens. Should come in handy when i start making bullet pens and drilling the projectiles.

What size did you order? I was thinking of ordering #4 or #5's.

if you have a harbor freight close by you can find what you need there. I think it's 4 different sized 60degree bits. It would cover all your pen size needs. Probably less than 6 bucks too. I love mine.
