  • Probably not enough water to worry about, but won't the reservoir drain out the hole once yer through? I would imagine that in some cases you might not want that little bit of water draining and sitting on top of a downstairs ceiling... just a thought!

  • @jeffpi You are correct not enough to worry about +++Bob

  • Do you think this would work? take a 3" square of 1/4" plywood and drill a hole in the middle bigger than the drill bit. place it up against the chuck at the base of the bit, then do the same w/ a celluose sponge. get the sponge all wet. Now when you press up against the hole in the wall tile the sponge squeezes out the water around the hole being drilled, hopefully cooling the bit in the process. I dont know if this will work, but I think Im gonna try it. vn

  • @verne5 Hmmm. Let me know how it goes.+++Bob

  • This is a great tip and it worked for me!

  • Of course the bit will get hot drilling that fast. What are you trying to do, melt your way through? I fit bathroom furniture every day drilling dry, and mines lasted nearly 7 years.
