Something I forgot to mention in this upload is NEVER use water to cool down your drill bit, no spray bottle or dipping in water, this will only change the temperament of the bit & cause it to blunt even quicker. Better to get Two drill bits and swap them over from hole to hole allowing slow cooling.
Thank you Aron this has been a tremendous help. I've wasted quite a bit of money over the years with the so called tile bits. The time saved is amazing. Your the man my friend. I subbed this channel , I will learn more I'm sure ✌️👊👍😊
In an Ashes year, I'm amazed I can bring myself to say this, but...gotta love Aussie common sense! Absolutely great video. Holes are in and no expensive water pipes or cables hit! Thanks so much for taking the time to do the vid.
Great points! 1 - drill one hole first 2 - knock the wal plug in with a piece of wood 3 - Have two drill bits. Thanks for sharing, much appreciated, watched from England.
Explained very well. I’ve managed to drill through tiles without cracking using masonry bit but most of these TH-cam videos keep suggesting that arrow type bit. But you managed to demonstrate it can be done without that expensive bit
Thank you for your feedback Zino. Also those glass cutting drill bits heat up very quickly & that causes them to loose their edge also. If drilling through expensive porcelain, this will cause even a masonry bit to heat up a lot, so getting Two drill bits & simply swapping them over from hole to hole is better than the price of One glass cutting bit.
Thanks again. I saw one guy recommend to push the plug further in so the end is behind the tile. So when the screw expands it the plug doesn't crack the tile.
I've NEVER had that issue, lest be one's screw is too large. You need the plug to grip the tile as it is the most reliable substrate. So I disagree with this other persons ideas. But it's your choice.
And you are my new favourite viewer, very glad to help. I have new videos coming out soon on other home renovations. Maybe they may help you also. Take care.
Went over to an FB page for DIY home fixes, and everybody told me to get a diamond drill bit for tiles, and to never use a masonry drill bit. Now I'm confused.
Well, it depends on your substrate behind the tile. If the brick is quite soft & your masonry drill bit is very new, it can be done without hammer setting, but it will take longer & you may need to remove the drill bit consistently & blow out the debris as you go.
@@anthonyz5671 Ahh, ok, use the Masonry to go through the tile then change drill bit to a regular bit (metal cutting bit) once your past the glue of the tile.
Hello to you to. It is best to drill through the tile and away from the edge of tiles as best you can, but placement of the holes are often subject to where you want them and Can have it. For example a towel rail joined to the wall always looks better if it is in the centre of a tile and not in the grout lines. Though height and placement is mostly governed by the room itself.
Where you live can vary whether the information I give is useful to you or not. You can order online though I recommend avoiding bits made in China. Germany, America or Canada make the best bits.
Timber stud or steel? But generally the answer is no. Use a smaller masonry bit, just slightly larger than the screw your going to use just to get through the tile and fibro board. But be careful, where is your Plumbing (pipes). The water pipes often pass through those studs.
@@AaronHahnStudios wood studs all pre-measured for location prior to boarding. This is to mount the bracket for a shower door. I’m surprised you say no water. I think there’s a kit you can use to keep the bit in place and it includes a water chamber if I recall correctly. Thanks for the videos
I am assuming you meant "Bosch". Just check where they are manufactured. If made in China, avoid them. If going through porcelain you really need excellent bits due to the extra heat porcelain generates. Though thin regular ceramic tiles a standard Bosch bit should be fine.
@@AaronHahnStudios yes it's bosch.. Most of our product here are made in China even its branded like apple iPhone =).. I am planning to drill ceramic tiles.. To be safe I bought some diamond burr drill bit
@@eclcliez No problem. Perhaps also you may view my "How to hang anything to a wall" upload. It may be long but the information you need is at the beginning.
Yes! I've done it for years, there have been a few comentors saying you can't so I am working on doing a video proving otherwise. It will be out soon. (But use a Sharp New Drill Bit) Thanks for watching & your comment.

Is this true in all circumstances with any drill bit on any material? What about other coolants or lubricants?
Well that makes sense, I'm wondering why the hell my drill bits are slowing down after I've shot some water on it

Great to read..👍
I used a tile/glass bit that you said not to use, and it was okay, i was able to get it done properly.
It will work, but at double the cost and it will blunt very quickly. Thanks for watching.

you are my new favourite person. Glad i watched this before attempting. Time to throw out those dumb red tip masonry bits!!
And you are my new favourite viewer, very glad to help. I have new videos coming out soon on other home renovations. Maybe they may help you also. Take care.
Brilliant. Thank you. I am the missus in this situation, but I’ll blame him anyway if I scratch the tile 😂
😂🤣 LOVE IT!
The masonary bit did not work for me. It made some progress but got red hot and stopped progressing. It was a brand new bit.
Quality of the bit or you may be pushing to hard. Don't push the bit, let it grind it slowly. If it gets hot, back off.
You don't need a 8mm plug for that 6.5 mm green plug would be better .
NEVER, I use blue for everything, I love overkill. (& if you listen I did say that. )
You are genius Sir
Keep it up God bless you all the way
Good...now I do it..thanks for sharing that nice video.
Thnx for sharing. Much appreciated.
You made me smile. Nice video Sir! Appreciated!
Likewise 🙂

I'm a tiler, I have renovated countless bathrooms and I never use diamond bits. They're too expensive & unnecessary. Simple.
@@AaronHahnStudios
OK, you’re a Tiler and you’re saying you don’t buy diamond bits or diamond tools how are you doing porcelain then?
Is. Hammer drill a must? I only have a regular drill.
Well, it depends on your substrate behind the tile. If the brick is quite soft & your masonry drill bit is very new, it can be done without hammer setting, but it will take longer & you may need to remove the drill bit consistently & blow out the debris as you go.
@@AaronHahnStudios its just drywall behind it. Im just hanging a shower rod.
@@anthonyz5671 Ahh, ok, use the Masonry to go through the tile then change drill bit to a regular bit (metal cutting bit) once your past the glue of the tile.
Hello sir... should i Drill in tiles joints or center of tiles plz reply
Hello to you to. It is best to drill through the tile and away from the edge of tiles as best you can, but placement of the holes are often subject to where you want them and Can have it. For example a towel rail joined to the wall always looks better if it is in the centre of a tile and not in the grout lines. Though height and placement is mostly governed by the room itself.
Where did you get your drill bit can you send a link?
Where you live can vary whether the information I give is useful to you or not. You can order online though I recommend avoiding bits made in China. Germany, America or Canada make the best bits.
If I have a stud behind do I need plugs at all, and do I care what size I drill?

Excellent 👌 informative and well delivered
Thank you. I wish I put more effort into this upload, it was done as a last minute unrehearsed thing. Sorry if I talked to much.
@@AaronHahnStudios Iv just fitted a roller blind into tiles using your method and it was effortless. So top marks bud.
