So today I was lucky and did not drill a 1.5mm hole in one of my fingers.
Unfortunately I also failed to put a scratch in the top cap so I'm figuring my one and only little drill bit just isn't up to the job.
Can someone recommend a set that would be suitable?
Ideally I'd like to get a few different sizes from 1mm to 2mm so I can work my way up to a draw that suits me.

You need cobalt drill bits, or the diamond cones you get for Dremels

I get a set of Dremmel bits. It starts at 0.8 and goes to 3mm.

or the very easy cheaper way! nail scissors!! put point of one blade in hole add slight pressure and give it a few twists,surprisingly it works even on stainless,swarf and polishing will shrink the hole to ,done this on all my aga's and on arashi...it works no need for dremmels mini drill bits

andy01424, Just don't let the OH catch you using her scissors.

Would love to save some pennies and use the scissor method but I'm not just opening up a hole, I want to add a second hole to the other side of a top cap so I can dual coil.
Really thinking about investing in a Dremmel now - There's definitely a modder inside me trying to break out...
