Drill bit questions
Comments (23)OK, thanks so much, handymac, Brickeyee, Mike, lazypup, etc. etc. Some of you were especially thorough, and i appreciate the info! I hope this response will answer in more or less a nutshell the above followups: Purpose: "primitive" homemade filter to filter scaly water. I already fashioned the below primitive filter. Now all i'd want is instead of my less-convenient homemade-bike-hose rubberband i'm currently using, instead: i'd drape the depicted coffee filter over the mouth, then screw on the saw-holed Mott's type of bottle cap. So i assume for that, either: hole saw or: unibit or: sander (Ebay? Amazon?) could work well, while spade bits are debatable judging by feedback. I'm also considering sawing 3 similar holes inside the screw-on lid of Blizzard-Brand Ice Melt, as a PRE-FILTER vs. slimy water from primitive rain barrel, in case i should ever need same. As for holes in wood, and for more details of how I decided to borrow my BIL's ancient hole-saw rig for that purpose, see: my other thread - collapsed closet rods where i plan on soon posting a further update including pics plus captions, to replace 1000 words. And, btw, i may wind up borrowing the ancient hole-saws for the bottle caps too, since they're already available. FINALLY - a followup question on bits: Does 2" or 3" bit holder make much difference? (or larger? And is Dewalt's the strongestly magnified & reliable vs. Milwaukee or others?...See MoreBit and tips for drilling into stones
Comments (2)Riverstones can be all different sorts of stone, so you don't really know how hard a material you're trying to cut. A few stones can be cut with ordinary drill bits, but more likely you'll need a harder cutting edge. Two kinds are commonly available at your hardware store or big box - masonry bits intended for concrete, or glass/tile drills. Failing those, perhaps carbide burrs or diamond bits, which are more expensive and harder to find. The holes these bits make aren't terribly precise, so I imagine you'll need to use epoxy to anchor the threaded inserts; even if you could achieve a friction fit, you'd probably split the stones with the pressure. If you're making a lot of these and your hardware store is far away, buy several drills and plan to return the extras; the carbide cutting edges tends to chip off easily so they may not last long. I'd drill the softest-seeming stones first, then do battle with the harder ones, and yes, keeping the bit cool with a squirt bottle of water is a great idea....See MoreRight Drill and Drill Bit for Large Concrete Planter Holes
Comments (40)lol. don't be scared! look at the bottom of the erplace page and there's a question that sounds familiar. in that page i sent a couple back. i didn't look threw it carefully. i thought they said something about the ball doing some kind of locking? again i don't have 1 of these so we're both learning something i was thinking, those drills are used for holes overhead, there would be lots of debris dropping on the drill. if the turd didn't maintain, it could be just mucked up?...See MoreHow can I remove a broken and stuck bolt from a toilet seat?
Comments (15)Hi Cary, Not a pro but....can you possibly take a picture of each side of the toilet? One picture on the left side and one picture on the right side, and at the ground level? Also, can you take a picture of the 'front' of the toilet but at the ground level as well? Lastly, can you lift off the backseat's top lid and take a picture of the internal flushing mechanism? We want to see how this toilet is mounted to the floor and the wall as well as the inside of the toilet. Based on these two pictures, this Kohler toilet looks to be a one-piece type of toilet. The bolts have to be screwed in somehow and there should be some type of washer or hex nut that tightens this bolt securely to the toilet bowl. If you have the model of the toilet, even better.
