Drilling Through Ceramic Bowl

Begin drilling into and through the duct tape.

Drilling through ceramic bowl.

Every 30 seconds of drilling drip some cutting oil onto the drill bit where. Let the drill bit do the work. Do not push excessively on the drill body. So how can you take advantage of cool looking ceramic pots vases bowls candy dishes punch bowls or whatever if they have no way to drain excess water.

We ve been drilling our own drainage holes in ceramic clay and glass containers for several years. Set the tip of the bit on the tape and press down with moderate force to keep the bit in one place while it s biting into the tile. Sinks made of composite materials like ceramic and porcelain are so strong and durable they require special diamond tipped drill bits to cut through them. The process of drilling through a thick ceramic porcelain sink is slow.

Fill a small bowl with water and keep it next to you while you re drilling. Start the drill on the lowest rpm and angle your drill on the masking tape to begin the drilling whilst at the same time squeezing water from your sponge directly onto the drilling process. We share the tools you will need and walk through the steps to drill a hole in. The answer is to drill your own drainage holes.

The angling of the drill will again help to prevent any skittering across the surface.
