    Rent a Hilti with core bit, I did today from home depot, such a clean cut and still a lot of effort.

    Doing the lords work. Hole-y work.
    That’s a pretty wide diameter for that floor joist tho, hope that doesn’t sag much

    Can you used a plastic pipe through the wall as a conduit and then run a ridged metal aluminum pipe through that and fill the end gaps with silicone? Would that hot aluminum cause the plastic pipe to melt? I wonder in case where larger bricks are used, and so some Cement will be needed. The ridged metal aluminum I have is thin, and so want to protect that metal.

    Does it matter whether you drill the screw holes before you drill and chip out the big hole?

      I would drill mounting holes after just in case the bigger hole moves a bit during the process

    Does it matter how high up the dryer vent is? I want it have it come out next to my basement window but it would be a couple inches from the ground. Is that okay.

      I would try to get it off the ground at least a foot

      Most building codes require the bottom of the vent to be at least 12" from the ground.

    What’s a good external sealant to use

    • @GetToThePointplz123

      Loctight makes a good polyurethane caulk for masonry, quad caulking is good or an exterior all purpose silicone

    what size dril bit is this is it 3/8 ??

    Why not just use a masonry hole saw attachment for the brick and normal hole saw bit for the wood. Would have been done in minutes.

      Those core bits and carbide hole saws are about $100 each. He's probably just drilling one hole for his own project and then won't ever drill a hole through brick like this again.

    So……how do you clean it without being able to take the flappy-dos off?

    How long did it take you to cut the hole?

    • @GetToThePointplz123
      @GetToThePointplz123  4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      The brick part definitely the hard part, probably 15 minutes or so? Happiness is a new sharp bit for sure

      @@GetToThePointplz123 did the job. Thanks for the information. Took me about 40 minutes to cut the hole in the brick. Thank the Lord for hammer drills.
