Default holey cow

When I last cut holes in computer-case sides for additional fans, I

two-blade flycutter, which balances the load better. Even so, I agree
that a hole saw is a better choice if available.


The other night my drill press was making a horrendous noise.

Dam. I hate when that happens!
