A standard twist drill will only cut half the time with this contraption. Do jeweler's use square section "drills" or similar to cut/wear in both directions?

On a different note, I've never encountered a modern jeweler who didn't have a Foredom at his work station.

I spent a few years in the Republic of Turkey in the 80's, and saw such things there. Don't know if you'd consider that "modern" or not. Any sort of flex-shaft drill can be handy, but so can the Archimedian style drills, especially where there is no available electrical power. The triangular-point blacksmith-style drills would cut both ways. I've considered making one for my shop several times. Now that I'm a little better trained in using a lathe, it seems more likely to happen in the foreseeable future.
