The stainless steel will work harden quickly when you drill using normal
procedures.  It can even melt the end of your drill bit on the second hole!!
The trick is to run the drill as slowly as possible while maintaining as
much force as you can without buckling the bit.  Use Go Jo handcleaner for
lubricant.  The Go Jo will stick to the bit and keep it cool, instead of
slinging off like most lubes.
