The MaxiCraft drill, from RS has a 12V power pack, but can run on 9-18V d.c. With a suitable 18V power pack, the drill will run at 18000RPM

The chuck capacity is 3.2mm, and there are also some collets (which replace the chuck, which simply unscrews) which can be used with micro drill bits with a 2.5mm shank.

Micro Drills, Collets and Soldering Iron Bits are stored in this small cabinet.

Process and Procedure

Developer, Etching and Tinplating chemistry

Matt Little has created a page describing in more details the procedures and processes that he uses regularly for making PCBs using some of the equipment in the Hackspace.
