    hi, what do you think of using hand operated slide drills (or pump
    drills), & also the egg beater type, for drilling?gold.for instance
    flush setting, etc? can they be used effectively for stone setting?
    i'm thinking that these could'nt be used with a burr for cutting a
    seat for a gem, as? the slow speed? would cause the burr to bite?? 

    thanks for any replys in advance 

joel
