I’ve often wondered if I can do this,as the mill was set up with a fixture for another job,there was an opportunity,I had to use a carbide cutter though,the usual bodge of wrapping soft material around the shank didn’t work so I ground 3 flats to use in a Jacobs 3 jaw.The table was locked via the friction clamps ,and then gently feed on the 4 start leadscrew,which was smooth and no judders.
Had this drill just over 30 years so don’t expect the need will arise again.
No drilling procedures have ever been monotonous with that view!
