    Question [Canberra] Help Wanted! Drilling 20mm Holes In Brass Plate

    Hi!

    I have four brass plates (5mm thick) that I need to drill 20mm holes in. Is there anyone in Canberra who can help me out?

    I don't have a drill that will do the job.

    Happy to throw some dollars your way or a six pack

    Craig

    Hi Craig,
    Since I'm just round the corner I could do it easily for you. How big are the plates?
    Pm me and we can arrange a time to drop them off, I could probably do them on the spot.

    Cheers,
    Ewan
