Great tip! Thanks!

If your drill bits are getting loaded up your drilling laminate and thats bad

Bits also get loaded up when re-drilling prevoiusly "repaired" breaks. Cheap resins are hard on bits, it only takes one or 2 holes to fill a bit. Good tip, keep the lines of communication open, the more we share the better we get.

Merci

I keep two dremels in my toolbox - one with a new bit and one with an old one for drilling out old resin for touch-ups or whatever.
This isn't any kind of big expense - Home Depot has (or had) a green Dremel mini-mite that they sell in a golf club cleaning kit for about $10. You have to swap out the collet.
I like the idea of the sonic cleaner - sounds like it would have many handy uses.
