..I just clamped it in a vise in a CNC mill, wrote a little program, and VOILA!!    8)


Sweet.  You should advertise that and charge $25.00 A POP + shipping.   ;D


Then it would seem too much like work!  ;D


I used to cut them for $15, but that required me to get out of my rocking chair too often. ;)

I'd be happy to drill it for you for free..... seriously.  You pay shipping both ways and I'll drill it... donate $5-$10 to coffee kids!

I will let you file/sand/de-burr the edges though.  I just used a file, but that takes about 2 minutes more per PF...

I actually drilled 2 of them 2 days ago (one from my Brazilia and the other from a Gaggia) .... took about 30 seconds each.
