i use drill bits to make the track cuts. i use my fingers and yes it does hurt a bit if you do many track cuts. but i would recommend you the spot face cutter. it will make your life much easier

Thanks for the tip, Joel.
My ordinary bit is getting dull, so I'll try a high speed steel brad points bit soon. :lol:

Hiya Guy's,
I've never bothered trying to use a drill bit or the right spot face cutter to cut tracks on vero board. I simply use a pointed burr in my dremel and cut the tracks that way. It's much easier than doing it by hand.

Cheers Bryan

Hey Bryan,

I had a few precision cuts to make yesterday, where the drill bit technique would have removed too much material. As you said, the Dremel with a small burr works wonders... 8)
