Drilling aeroscreen
Use a lip and spur wood drill bit at slow speed with very little pressure. It will also help to back up the screen with a piece of similar material
during drilling.
Lip and spur bits are the ones with a central point and two scribing points instead of the normal Vee shaped cutting edges. B&Q etc sell them.
