Thanks for the tip, I never thought of thinning the web. Also, another afterthought, I found this great cutting fluid for drilling, tapping, and the like at my local industrial supply place. I think it's called Astro 2000, or something like that. You dilute it at an absurd rate, like 50:1 or so, with water. That is 1 gal makes 51 gal of cutting fluid. I think it works better than oil on steel, and is a lot cheaper than oil (about $20/gal undiluted), so you can really dump it on, to keep the bit cool. Since it's water based, you and your shop stay a lot cleaner, and you don't have to worry about cleaning the oil off your parts before painting. I'm sure there are other water-based fluids out there, but this is the one I found.
