Terry,
My first thought was to have a bit that was three sizes in one, smallest at
the tip and graduating to larger sizes toward the other end of the shank.
like every inch.
Then I thought nah teeter-totter the key to find where the weights belonged
and use one size that was appropriate to do the job. But then I know very
little of Stanwoods work ((O:(

I have 1/2" leads, 3/8" leads, and 1/4" leads. I also need to remove some
old leads and drill a 9/16" hole to plug. As I see it, is seems to me that
it would be real nice to have at least four drill presses set up with these
various bits. Of course, I only have one.

efficient - where you are not switching bits every 3 minutes. I can't
imagine doing this all day long switching bits 4,000 times. Thoughts? Ideas?
