    Drilling in porcelain tiles
    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

    Thanks

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