Drilling a Lanyard Hole in a Ferro Rod

Description

Sellers will want to convince you that you can't drill your own hole in a ferro rod to attach a lanyard so that they can charge you more for them to do it. It's just as easy as drilling any bar metal, you just have to slow it down a little more occasionally, or use oil to keep it cool (this only helped marginally).
