I was having troubles getting a straght hole so I made a 90° jig that gets clamped to the base of the drillpress. All I have to do is find the center of one of the pieces of squarestock, center the jig and I'm all set to drill as many as i need. I dont even use the handle of the drill press, I just lift up on the square stock and the jig guides my way. I use a regular drill bit and do both sides of the square stock as far as that bit will go, then use a longer bit in conjunction with a hand held drill to finish the hole. Works every time.
