I have see people drill holes in ceramic pots but none have showed whivh drill bit to use. This is so helpful.
Happily!
I've drilled a lot of my pots and had fun doing it. Not one broke. I was really thankful it all went great. I loved that large pot you did.
Blessings Always
Blessings to you!
I’ve drilled holes in all of my terracotta /ceramic/glass planters too but I use the circle diamond drill bits and I also run the water hose slowly while I’m doing it to avoid breakage from the heat while drilling. Works 100%. Never have had a crack or breakage. ALWAYS wear safety glasses.
Great tip!
Hey Devin, thank you for teaching us what kind of drill bits to use. My only concern is that you need to wear a pair of safety glasses when you use a drill.
Probably a good idea!
Oh shut up, only you would wear safety glasses for this kind of thing
Wonderful work Devin . Now your wife will be happy . Have a nice day .🌿
Yes!!
I have asked this question to myself so many times. Thanks! ❤🎉
Now you know!!
This was very informative. However I have drilled probably 50 or more terracotta and ceramic pots but I used the diamond tip circle bits, two different sizes. I never had any break but it can be challenging as you need to start at a 45 degree angle and then slowly at a 90 degree angle. The ceramic ones are tough as they are slippery but I don't let that stop me. I found it on another UA-cam video, but I think yours would have been easier. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thanks for adding in your experience!
Hi Devin, I had a few pot that needed drain hole. Some were glaze and some unglazed . I bought a 5 piece diamond hole saw drill bit set off from Amazon .
Needed to add a little water where my husband was drilling the hole because it was getting a little warm . Worked great! I have passed up so many pretty pots because they didn't have any drain hole. Not any more 😊.
Glad to hear it!
Brilliant job 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
@@plantvibrations 😊
Super helpful!
Happy to hear it!
I was happy to see that you did not break either of the pots while drilling the holes.
:-)
Wow..this is epic! Thank you! Funny, I was just lamenting the fact that the cool pots Ive been finding lately have no drainage holes. Now NOTHING will stop me! Mwahahahhaaa *cough* *cough*.
Great idea for a video! Thanks again 😁
Yessss!! That’s what I love to hear, go get those cool pots
All types of pots you can use a ceramic/glass bit. Don't press too hard but be firm. Best if you can drill a little from both sides, (sometimes you can't), and switch sides as soon as you have a hole showing. You can get perfect circular holes in any pot. I do it all the time, even done multiple holes in larger pots.
Thanks for the tips!
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Ok so I found these. I’m thinking they’ll work for the glazed ceramic & also pottery. If it can cut glass & brick, should work for both?
Professional Masonry Drill Bit Set (10PCS) for Glass/Brick/Plastic/Cement/Wood/Tile/Etc, Industrial Strength Carbide Drill Bit Tip
Better deal… $5. And someone in reviews said it worked for pots.
amoolo Masonry Drill Bit Set 5pcs, Concrete Drill Bits with Carbide Tip (1/4”-1/2”) for Brick, Tile, Cement, Ceramic, Glass, Plastic, Etc.
Awesome!! Yes those should work!
Can you make a video about Norfolk Pines? I need help. Mine is slowly dying. The fronds are drying up from the trunk to the ends and falling off. I've seen some videos on how to start them from cuttings but it would take forever to get it to the 5 foot size I have now and I haven't had much luck.Thanks
Yes starting a new one from cuttings wouldn’t be worth it!
You’re reading our minds…😂
Hahahah
always to the point, ilove your videos!!!! what will you plant in each of the pots?
Not sure yet!! Thanks for watching
❤❤
:)
Yes, it always seems the one pot you find that is perfect has no drainage. Of course, my biggest peeve is when you find that perfect expensive glazed pot with drainage there is never a matching saucer to be found.
Truth!!
You almost broke that first pot during the initial drill. You slammed the drill into the pot.
I don’t think so!
