Default Drilling tip

In the last couple of years of building I've found this tip on drilling to be mostly true. As you drill your parts together look at the reflection of the bit. If the bit and reflection of the bit look as if they form a straight line the resultant hole will be straight. This holds true no matter what the sight angle even if that angle changes while drilling. Strongly curved surfaces are a little harder to line up on.
