hi everyone nice to be here, hope i can help with questions and answer,
hey I need to drill like about 600 holes in porcelain tile ( made by mirage) to install clothes line in bathrooms.
i use a diamond hole saw bit ( 1/4" ) and a spray bottle and on saturday 17, i did only 16 holes and 3 bits warn out.
is there any other way i can do this

Speed, drill choice and coolant are going to make a big difference in the lifetime of the bit.
