Maybe so. But you can guarantee that it will the 20th hole that you screw up.....

 drilling most holes isnt too tough - but you cant use a spade bit in a hand drill without a good possibility of injury.  they are made to be used with drill presses or simular.

  also... the stand device has locking angles and a depth stopper.  these work nice for special holes - that arnt so easy to do without the stand.

  why use a spade bit?   they are faster and easier to cut holes.   they are fairly cheap (yet very durrable)... and you can get a whole set for the cost of just a couple of hole saws.  (im not counting those all-in-one hole saws because they stink.  they break easily, holes arnt perfect..ect)

  fostner bits are the bomb of course... but very expensive unless you find a good deal on them.

Makes the corkscrew slide in easier . . .

Uhm...is it just me, or does that home CNC have a Dremel on it?  Wow, you really CAN do anything with those suckers!  :D
