I have one of those 60348 spring drills, and find it very useful. It's a matter of how you use it. Place one index finger on the back to aim and steady the drill, and with the other hand gently push the slide down, which turns the drill. Then RELEASE the slide so it slides back up without turning the drill. Push down again, etc. You may need to back out occasionally to clear the drill flutes as in any fine drilling operation, and use beeswax or other lubricant when applicable.
