You can, too, in wood. It takes a mortiser bit. The mortiser bit is like a chisel and drill bit in one. It is more a drilling-chisel than a machining action. Early on in the film it showed the CADCAM instructions, i guess for the CNC machine? Good post. Our motorcycles have vastly improved  over the last hundred years thanks to innovations such as the one you showed us.

I can make square holes like that.  I just use a normal drill and then square it out with a small file.  No big deal, except that it takes about 7 hours per hole.

Old enough to be thinking about how to avoid the rectangular hole.

I knew if I looked enough I'd find something on this. Not the footage from Roy's actual show, but the same tool:


Drilling square and other shaped holes isn't exactly new technology for woodworking apparently! Cheesy

Woodright's Shop on PBS; awesome show!
