good router bits work well in aluminum if you dont take off too much material at once.
Im going to jig up my campy seatpost and take a hand at my router table, 2kw is plenty powerful if I dont muck it up.
Honestly, I don't feel anywhere near in control when using a drill press than when I am using the Dremel. The only time I've ever used a drill press and discovered it worked better and faster for me was doing a set of chainrings. It also allowed me to drill the holes a little bit bigger.
I also find I can't get right down onto the part - I'm seeing it at maybe a 45 degree angle and I don't know...maybe it's just me, but that just doesn't work for me. I'm funny like that, I suppose
I'm interested in seeing what you come up with regarding your Campy seatpost; you'll share the results with us, won't you?
