Dot Driller Thumb OLF.jpg


Happy New Year!

What better way to ring in the new year than with a new tool?

Introducing, the ELEVATE Dot Driller- this simplest way to make your own side dots. It's used in a drill press and available in both 3/32" and 2mm. Inside it's tool steel body is a spring loaded aluminum ejector pin.

Now creating side dots is as easy as drilling into your material of choice. Once you break thru the material or the plug breaks free, turn off the machine and pop the plug out with the ejector pin- then repeat. It's that simple!

Head over to the website and watch the tutorial to see it in action.

Hmm... Haven't checked the actual "speed" of my drill press in a while. But I run it pretty fast. It's a small diameter.
