I never even tried drilling the alum rod, I was thinking about it while turning it on the lathe. A person can get a better quality plastic at the hobby store. I used a bit of sea foam lub while drilling on the slowest speed, going down about 1/8" at a time and cleaning out the flutes of the bit quite alot.
