Lost & Found

And then, all of a sudden, the copper tip on my drill was gone. I've looked for it everywhere -- yes, also in the wood. But I didn't find it.

Eventually I decided to cheat and drill on without the copper guide. (I was only a few mm from being done!) And there, within the flute-to-be, I found it back:

All mashed up by the drilling. Remember, I looked there before, too, but apparently it was completely hidden inside, only to come out by further drilling.
