Default Re: scratches from drill

I also use the spinning between fingers method but I keep the drill upright to the glass. I use round end burs at all times. One of the things to remeber when drilling is to keep one hand one the glass as a steady. We find plenty of guys who have been repairing before have not been taught this method. As for those little scratches, try treating them as small chips. Just drip in some normal resin and wipe out again so that it leaves a damp pit, then pit fill and polish as normal. When using this method to fill any small pit check when you put in the normal resin that the pit has nearly dissapeared, it is at this point that any rough are's that may need scribing will show up.
