I have a problem drilling a pen blank with my drill press. I can only go about half way down, then I have to turn the blank over to finish it.
Obviously this is a rather less-than-desired way to drill from both ends towards the middle.
I have looked near-and-far for a drill press that has enough throw to handle the entire pen blank (about 6 inches), but they seem to be non-existent, at least for the hobbiest.
How is everyone else drilling out pen-blanks?
