    What drill bit to use to make a keychain from a dead 1.2GHz Athlon?

    not to sure. I just need a small hole big enough for a keychain or necklace size to hang from rear view mirror. I am really wondering now if it was a carbide bit that we used..hmmm is there sich a thing as a cobalt bit. if not then the carbide bit in the drill press we used was a no go
