If using a drill press, you MUST feed carbide extremely slow. You can force a steel bit, but not carbide. The reason I use a Dremel, by hand, is that it reduces chatter, and cushions any bounce of the bit, which will cause them to break. Remember to use a starter punch, too. I use the Dremel on the slowest speed so, speed is really not a factor.
