Drill Holes in Glass Easily ● Wine Bottles, Mason Jars ( in under a minute ! )

today I'm going to show you a very easy way on how to drill holes in glass we'll also do this mason jar and we'll also drill through this thick base in this flower of Oz and on a plain piece of glass a mirror and a bathroom tile so for cutting holes in glass in the past I've used a carbide tip blade just like this this was actually for masonry the ones for glass have got more of a severe angle on they're more pointed but I found that when I use those they took forever to drill through the glass so what I found were these super cheap hole cutting bits on eBay these things work fantastic and the price on eBay is right around the $10 mark but guess what you don't just get one you get 10 in the kit altogether and they range in size from quarter inch all the way up to an inch and a quarter and you think that after you use that once it'd probably be ready to be tossed away because it's probably dull but that's not the case I've used one of these bits here and I've drilled about ten holes with it so far and it drills just like it's still new but you'll notice that there's one thing that they don't have so this wood cutting bit I have here it has a drill bit right in the center so that it's easy to start the hole and then it cuts the hole once it gets down to the cutter these ones don't but I have an easy way to get around that let me show you how to make a little jig and when you go on ebay use this as a search term and of course if you have a drill press you don't even need the jig so first grab yourself a piece of quarter-inch wood just a scrap piece will do now grab yourself a drill bit that's the same size as the hole that you want to cut with the bit that you want to use [Applause] and once you have the holes cut just make sure that the bit will fit into the hole rather easily if it doesn't just use the file and file the hole around until it fits nice so when you're using one of these bits you do need to use water to keep the bit cool as you're cutting some people use the sponge to squeeze water onto it others use like a little dam made out of putty around it to put like a pool of water around the bit but I've got an even better way and that is use a two-liter pop bottle so just take a pin or a drill or whatever and poke a hole about halfway down the bottle in the side of it now just fill the bottle with water and put the cap on it and now all you have to do is place the bottle down get it position and undo the lid and the water comes right out onto the bit and then when you're finished just tighten it up and the water will stop this will last year for a good 15 minutes so we'll cut this pane of glass first so just lay it on top of a scrap piece of wood and take your template that we've made up and place it where you want the hole to be drilled and start your water now just take your drill bit and go full speed and just let the weight of the drill do its work and once you've got the whole started with the template you can take it off because it's already got like a little Ridge made in the glass now for you to put the bidding so you can see on the backside of the glass here how it kind of it just broke the edge a little bit but if you get good at it and you go nice and slow that'll be reduced even more so let's do a wine bottle next so I like to use a beach towel that way there's a little bit of cushioning and it won't roll around as much turn the water on now we'll try the bigger bit on a mason jar [Music] now we'll do the side and the bottom of this fairly large Vaz [Music] [Music] and now let's do a ceramic bathroom tile and a coffee mug well I hope this video has helped if it did hit the like button and subscribe to my channel and we'll see you next time [Music]

The irony is this dude is pretty against all forms of voluntary smoke inhalation. "Remember kids, there's one thing meant to go into your lungs and that's air."

Finally now no one has an excuse for making a plastic bottle bong.

I got one of those drills for glass which looks like the tip of an arrow, but i cant drill the hole with an angle where you could put the chillum in, only straight which is suboptimal. Any tips?

I turned myself into a pickle morty

I've been meaning to look up a video to learn how to drill holes in some of my plant pots, so thank you for sharing!

It takes time and patience, but if you don't have the right equipment you can tap/chisel out a hole with a screw and the back of a spoon. Bit of sanding to smooth it out and you're golden 🤙

And I was about to take a hammer to a tea bottle for my grav bong

I was wondering what the dill with the pickle was before I watched the video.
