Default Chips Around Bead Holes

Why am I getting chips around the ends of my beads?

Sorry, rephrase that question - my dremel is chipping the ends of my beads, what can I do to stop the chipping?

The beads in question have nice dimpled ends when they come off the mandrel but once I clean them with my dremel there are chips around the hole that weren't there to start with. I use a diamond bit in my dremel & use a fairly low speed, but it's really annoying me that I am losing bead after bead to my reject box because the ends keep chipping - help?!
