Right. But the original message was about using Silver&Deming
(stepped-down shank) drills. Running a 1" drill in stainless with
a 1/2" shank in a 1/2" imported copy of a Jacobs chuck will be a very
frustrating exercise! I managed to get a good set of Morse taper
drills, and they are WONDERFUL to use!
