now a lot of people quite rightly get worried about drilling tiles to things I can tell you one is that used plenty of water and a diamond bit now you might think diamond that's expensive but this whole kit that I've got here which includes ten different sizes of diamond Corbett was around ten quid on ebay so we're gonna put the link below for that you can see that in our details but also let me just say the other thing is it isn't necessarily the drilling if you take it slowly there's no reason why you should ever crack a tile when you're drilling but what happens is people then put the plug in through the tile and when they put the screw in if they use a parallel thread you're absolutely fine because the plug doesn't expand along its length but if you use a tapered thread in other words one that starts thinner top and comes out wider at the end then as you just rule that sorry as you just screw that screw in and it expends that plug it's at that point that it cracks the tile you just get that lost you get lots good so the important thing is what it says in the instructions for this screen is to use two different drill bits one to drill the hole all the way through for your fixing in your plug but the other one you just thrilled through the tile which is a wider one so you've got one at five mil one at seven mil so the seven mil one just gives you enough room for the head of that plug to expand and if you do that if you make sure that there's no pressure from that plug on the tile itself you'll be absolutely fine it's just a question thinking about what you're doing and taking your time [Music]
