Drilling Resin?

I need to drill a set of very accurate holes in a resin kit, and am not sure what the best kind of drill bits to use are?

I'm using a standard hand-held drill.

If accuracy is important a drill press would be better.

Indeed, but I don't have access to one.
 
Drill carefully haflway through one side, then finish drilling from the other. Start withthe smallest bit first, then work your way up. Tape off the area, if your dilling a finished pice in case the bit wants to wander. Take your time, you only get one chance.
