Hi guys! If anyone has an 8mm drill could you bring it tonight so I can borrow it for 5 mins? I need to widen some holes in the replacement bar clamps for my 3D-printer. I'll buy you a soda/give you a hand with your project as thanks!

Cheers,
/Emil

There should be many in the drawers on the workbench against the wall if there aren't any by the pillar drill.

Confused of Maidenhead here.

If there aren't any in the clear plastic drawers behind the band saw what was I using last Friday to ream out holes in printed plastic parts (as Emil requires)? :-)

They were cylindrical in shape, marked as 7.5mm, 8mm and 8.5mm. They had spiral flutes with sharp cutting edges and pointed ends. :-)

That is not to say that it isn't wise to carry your own tools. Past existence is no guarantee of future presence.

Regards,

Malcolm

On Tuesday there were zero 8mm in those plastic draws. They often don't get put back or replaced when broken...

In which case someone is a heavy user of 8mm drills. There were at least 3 in there on Friday afternoon, two in a plastic bag and one "pre-used".

Breaking 8mm bits... Holy nik nak.

More likely leaving them lying around or walking off with them.
