you can use the back end of a 1/8 inch drill bit if you only need a short piece.

Thanks dallen, I'll try the paint thinner.
I got under the skin with a new 1/2 cheapie 4 flute end mill, after figuring out I was running the mill waaaaay to fast. Set RPM down around 450 and a slow power feed on the X axis. My feeds and speeds chart I use for guidance didn't have Cast Iron listed and I was trying to use the steel speeds.
