• a base attached to one end of the shaft, said base being sized and configured for insertion into the check of a drill;
• and
• a cylindrical tip axially aligned with said shaft, said tip having an inside diameter less than an inside diameter of the shaft, and said tip having an outside diameter greater than the outside diameter of the shaft, said tip being rigidly attached to the shaft with a first step formed on the outer surface of the drill said first step defined by the difference in outside diameters of the shaft and the tip, and a second step formed on the inner surface of the drill said second step defined by the difference in the inside diameters of the shaft and tip, each of said steps being not greater than 0.010 inches;
• said tip having a substantially conically shaped tapered portion tapered radially inwardly from intermediate the ends of the tip to the leading end of the tip with the leading end of the tip defining a cutting edge.
