Betting Result
A good friend of mine and I had a bet on whether or not the Lucite (acrylic glass) can be drilled with a power drill. As a part of betting process, I've made the following display with a golden stonefly.
As a gloating winner, I proudly present "a fly on a drilled Lucite base".
Pilot hole, nice and slow...I've been there brother. Although, in this case the hole is so small not sure if there ever was a pilot hole. Wait, is that a drill press receipt I see back there?
If I remember correctly, you have to drill slowly with a sharp bit. It starts to milt and sticks to the drill bit. I wonder if you do this under water, it works better. It looks great with a fly on it.
Nice thing to have on the corner of the table.
