The art of deep hole drilling did not start today. Long ago during the Revolutionary era, this skill was in high demand especially for the making of guns of different sizes. Simple tools and deep hole drilling machine were used during these times. As the technology grew, more improved tools such as the gun drill tooling equipment and even the BTA tooling machines were developed.

Though the modern tools seem comfortable and enjoyable to handle, one may easily get injured if they fail to use them properly. Drilling of these holes is a bit dangerous if one fails to be careful. There are many reported cases of injuries during the drilling of these holes. It is a mandatory requirement therefore that one is aware of safety precautions before embarking on this work.

There being several kinds of these tools, tool selection is a number one safety factor. The tool to be used will depend on some factors including the hole dimension, the requirements of the hole to be drilled, the number of machine operators available and the time after each grinding. Its important that one picks a machine that satisfies the job requirement.

Having successfully managed to select the right tool or machinery, the next important step is understanding it. It is very dangerous that one starts using an appliance without the proper understanding of its operation. For example, in such tools, it is important that one can know how to deliver fluids or coolants into the work piece without compromising its final specifications.

One is advised to ensure regular checking of the machine to see how they are progressing. This process usually causes the wearing off of these machines after some period. This wearing of usually reduces the quality of the pit. More so, it makes one more prone to accidents that lead to injuries that may at times be very severe depending on the extent to which the tool was misused.

Digging this hole is similar to any other workshop job. One should put on the appropriate clothing. A think and complete overall are one of these requirements. Gloves also should not be kept away when dealing with these tools. Due to the chips of metals ejected while drilling, one is asked to put on gears that are to protect their eyes from this debris.

Observing all the above precautions will still not be fruitful if one is unable to maintain a conducive working environment for them. It should be noted that deep hole drilling is involved with machines all through. It is thus important that the device is placed in a transparent place. The working table should not have any additional minor tools or things. The pieces that need to be drilled should be placed close to you but not on the table.

Most accidents that have occurred during the drilling of these holes, the affected part of the body is mostly the hand. Therefore, for the safety of ones hands, it is necessary that one is provided with handling device. There is usually a high likelihood that one will have their hand pulled by the machine when anything goes wrong. Using of the handling device aids in averting this danger.
