    Super concise and efficient demonstration! I need to remember to use the flathead to remove the last of the rivet buttonhead instead of relying on the drill bit, much cleaner release.

      yes I love the flat head screwdriver for doing that otherwise sometimes I drill too deep and it becomes a pain to work with. Glad you liked the video!

    I learned there's always a risk and reward of drilling out rivets. Sometimes it's like the bits are either too big or not enough sometimes. Worse is drilling into your hand.

      yeah it definitely takes some practice to know when to stop drilling, ive drilled through my fair share of cars when I was starting lol

    Quick tip for depth gauging the second drill bit (or any drill bit for that matter) - Figure the depth you want it to go, and then wrap a small piece of masking tape around the bit at that measurement. Helps when eyeballing the depth as you drill into anything.

    Do you use screws to reassemble afterward? Or not take apart vehicle's for swaps?

    The amount of nice expensive cars like r34’s, rlc’s and OG boulevard’s I’ve thrown away because I trashed it one way or another makes me sick luckily I’ve gotten 100% better than back then and rarely mess up now. Practice practice especially on premiums! Also One 32nd size bigger bit would work wonders getting that ring off easier or drilling your pilot hole a little bigger

    • @orlandofarias2575

      So instead of a 1/16 bit should I use a 1/32 for the pilot hole
