Cheers guys....gonna try the cobalts from UK Drills off ebay and get some of that coolant Gary recomended.....been after some for a while just didnt want to buy 5litres ! Will take it nice and sloooowwww. First time used hardox and I thought drilling Ti was challenging - knew it wouldnt be easy and was prepared but not quite as hard as this !

Of course my engineering consultant is at Uni now...so nobody to tell me where I am going wrong - heh Will !

Thanks Ian
PS Team Shock and Team Toon had about 1.5 seconds of airtime right at the end on the gadget show...(nice shirts !)
