Re: Drilling Dewalt gear for Fisher Price

I definitely don't recommend using a standard drill to do this job.

Even a lathe is trickier that I'd like (though with a very tiny boring bar & small cuts you can do it reliably).

I am a big fan of wire EDM. Fine a local source or use the one listed in the NBD whitepaper.
