I need to drill a hole in some glass bottles. How do I do this or is there anywhere I could take them..?

Question

.. or is there anywhere i could take them to have someone do it for me... I am scared, I have no idea how to do this and I don't want to crack them. please help

Answer 1

yes wrap the bottle in tape, buy a ceramic drill bit, drill at a slow speed and try to keep the bit watered so that it doesnt overheat. apply enough pressure when drilling, but let up a bit as you are getting through the other end. the bottles may break so you might want to take them to a tile shop where I'm sure they would do it for you

Answer 2

They sell "glass" drill bits.  If you use anything else you will shatter the bottles and probably injure yourself.  You could also take them to a glass shop, where they have the drill bits already and probably won't charge you very much to do it for you.

Answer 3

wrap the bottle in Tape. Regular masking tape will do. And, when you drill. Use the highest speed setting and don't put too much pressure on the drill tip. Good luck.
