Where does one hire a drill press? The sort that you put on a bench rather than a full pedestal type. I've internetted about and not found anywhere in the North Shore that does this.
Cheers.

One problem you may have is rigidity, with the really cheap drill presses when doing basic milling there tends to be to much flex. You may be OK with perspex though.
Yeah, that was my concern with the likes of the sub-$200 presses I've seen about. Which is why I'd prefer just to rent one for half a day so I can have a go and find out.

Your going to have a real hard time with a drill press. You want a router or a dremel with a router bit.
Hirepool look like they rent out routers. https://www.hirepool.co.nz/equipment-hire/s1/1/s3/234/FetchGroup/671A
Do you mean a hard time finding one or just getting it to do what I want it to? My plan would be to use a clamp and do it like this picture:
The thing with a Dremel, is that mine came with a router attachment but it's really poorly made and doesn't allow the bit to sit 90 degrees to the material.
A router is definitely a possibility, but I would need to be able to set it up so that I have an accurate guide for straight lines, evenly spaced apart.
