Reply:i've used a drill press and others...........but the hand held air drill seems to work the best. my drill is a 1/2 " 500 rpm max , so i think it runs a little slower turned down to like 80psi and worked very well , it acts like it loves doing it so you almost have to pull back on it a little.        thermal arc 252i  -  millermatic 350P -   miller XMT, cp300ts, 30a 22a feeders, buttload of other millers, handfull of lincolns, couple of esabs  -   Hypertherm 1250 G3
