    File a flat wherever you want to drill. This should give you a good
    surface on which to drill. Pre-punching or marking each hole location
    with a dimple (how about a very small ball burr) will give the drill
    a spot to seat itself in as it cuts. You could also change the drill
    tip geometry but I don't think you want to be messing around with
    jewelry size drills. ;-} Best,
