Get a piece of wood that is about 60cm either from a shop or if you have a workshop, get a piece from there.

Get some tape and put it around the opposite end of the wood to were you drilled the hole 3cm.

Get a small screw about this size |--------| (not to scale, dependent on your monitor) and screw it in the end were the tape is making sure its on top.
