In case anyone is thinking of doing this, a trick I learned about drilling into plastic with a regular spiral twist drill bit is to run your drill in reverse, as the heat from the friction of the drill bit will 'melt' the plastic, and will not grab (and potentially crack) the plastic, as it might do if running the drill in the forward setting.
Brian (your friendly Net54 non-cracking plastic drilling expert). Bonus fun info: if drilling rubber freeze the item, as it will also make grabbing less likely. I don't think reversing drill bit direction is necessary.
