When doing this inside, particularly if it is in a finished area where you don't want dust, consider keeping a shop vac nozzle close to where the dust shoots off like we do in this video about 30 seconds in: ua-cam.com/video/IIjeQw6HQPo/v-deo.html You can then follow up by cutting the wood substrate with a jig saw.
This would be an acceptable method, but you may consider buying a specialty hole saw for that particular purpose as doing this upside down could be problematic with dust and all. www.lenoxtools.com/pages/Product_productId_DiamondHoleSaws.aspx
Thanks. It is always good to hear positive feedback on these videos. My hope is that they will help DIYers and tradesmen out and get conversation going about methods and practices.
So,...why note show a hole in porcelain tile close to the edge??? This is the place where most tile guys have a hard time. Sometimes you have to ruin a few tiles before you get one that doesn't break.
In order to do this closer to the edge, you need to secure the entirety of the tile to a scrap piece of wood you don't mind marking up. If you secure the tile with a number of clamps and then cut it as shown in the video, the vibration will be mitigated making it less likely for the tile to break. Whenever there are thin cuts, the possibility for breakage does exist. Next time I make a round of videos, I will demonstrate, but I hope this helps in the mean time.
We use a 4" Diamond Arbor Grinding Wheel. I really haven't found much difference in brands but tend to buy Norton. They have great sand paper as well that does not deteriorate when it gets wet.
Thanks for sharing! Really amazing and helpful!
I appreciate the feedback. Let me know if you have any home improvement questions. I'd be happy to help out.
EXCELLENT VIDEO! I have to cut a 4" circular hole into our tiled floor for a dryer vent pipe going into our crawl space.

I didn't know that Colonel Klink did tile work.
He does, and he hopes you found the video informative!
The Colonel is good
I guess you could say that about almost anyone that buzzcuts what’s left of his hair, kinda like me.
What kind of blade was that on the angle grinder?

Try the diablo wheels you wont be disappointed
@@tooladdict8673 does Diablo make a diamond wheel for tile?
@@cnesler yes sir Diablo is like one of the best wheels to cut tile very clean cuts and it won't chip
@@tooladdict8673 wish I knew that a month ago when I tiled my bathroom
Very good technique but I was appalled by two things: lack of safety precautions and using the angle grinder as a hammer
Apart from that very good
I appreciate the feedback.
It's an old school , I like it without to much precautions😄
@@zheljkonk1 I had to go back and watch it but I was pleased to see I was wearing safety glasses.
@@groutrx1415 yes , I noticed, and for a skilled man like yourself it was enough.
@@zheljkonk1 🤣You are too kind.
you are not a qualified worker
🤣A new revision on an old turn of phrase... Those who can't, comment on UA-cam.😂
