I've been drilling PCBs for years with a regular handheld electric
drill and non-carbide bits. I've had surprisingly good results and
broke very few bits. But holding that drill does get old after about
100 holes.
I'm looking for an alternative solution to this. A drill press at
www.micromark.com looks decent for 150-200 USD. How about a Dremel?
This seems like an ideal solution, but I've been reading a lot about
the Dremel drill press stands that aren't precise enough (too much
wobble for carbide bits). Ebay has a lot of super-cheap small drill
presses, but the price makes me think they're junk.
What does everyone do, besides pay a PCB house?
Here is my setup - it works quite well....

The drill stand is quite accurate.
