How to drill a cenetered hole in end of solid rod

Is there a vo tech high school or perhaps a technical college near
you?

I should think any vo tech oriented school that has a manuacturing
shop would be glad to help out. I know that I certainly would.

For that matter if you can't get it done local let me know and I will
have one of my students do it up and will mail it to you. I have .500
and .750 AL on hand, 6061 I believe although it might be 7075, I will
have to look and see.

I need to make a specialized tool and am looking for a way to drill a
1/16" hole EXACTLY in the center of the end of a piece of say 1/2" of
3/4" solid aluminum rod. In other words, I am trying to make something
similar to a screwdriver using solid aluminum rod for the handle and
1/16" brass rod as the blade.
