What can I use for a substitute for Diamond Drill bits?

galoot · 01-04-2009, 11:39 PM

If there's no potential substitute for drilling glass, what type of diamond bit should I use?

How thick of a bit?

1/2" ?

1/8" ?

Probably a sixteenth larger than your stem. I.e. If your stem is 3/8 then drillbit needs to be 7/16,1/2 inch stem=9/16 bit,etc. Happy piping!!!

Regular sized stems are 9/16 bits?

Sorry, I wanted to know the regular size of a stem for the bits.
