No it isnt giving out spiral carvings of steel just powdery stuff! I have already drilled 3 holes. Pls advice what lubrication can I use to drill the final hole with ease! Then I wont break any mounts , and will break something else that isnt replaced with steel!

And for the wood issue , can I use 30 min epoxy mix? So I can work slow...What 's the difference between terms 'epoxy' and 'ca'?
Is it that CA doesnt have to mix? I will get some cheap brushes in HD...

Thanks...I am always learning LOL
