How To Drill A Hole In A Sphere To Make A Bead

- In this video we mount the Gunther Multidrill system onto an standard drill press from Home Depot and drill a perfectly centered hole through a sphere to make a bead. Using this system you could make a strand of beads in 15mins. Just drill all your starter holes and then switch out the insert to finish the beads.

Kill the music as it makes it hard to hear the instructions. Thanks for the demo.
OMG, why are you using pliers on that bolt?
Very good
Your drill jig attechment is very good can i do it at home. Its part avilable in market. What call is it. Please tell sir
Hello mate. thank you for the information..
Also can you please teach us or tell us how to drill a emerald stone at home to make beads..
I have been looking for a video but i couldn't find any..
Can you help please.. thank you.
You'll have to use a corundum or diamond drill bit for emerald. Emerald (beryl) is about an 8 on Mohs hardness scale; corundum has a hardness of 9 and diamond's hardness is 10 on the Mohs scale. A 1mm hole is pretty standard and will still allow for multiple passes of most beading thread through a hole that size (thread used for seed beads). Your specimen will need to be stabilized in some kind of mount in which it fits that is clamped to a work bench or held in place in a vice. I would use a drill press as shown in this video rather than trying to freehand it - you want straight hole without sharp edges (cuts the thread). Good luck!
Great idea, one suggestion, the "counterpart" is confusing terminology, and inaccurate. Calling it a locating pin or something would be much clearer.
Hi could you tell me what the bottom attachment is called please? The part you are placing the bead onto???
Its a magnetic base that holds the counter part. Here is a link for more information:

Thankyou so much. I will have a look! I really appreciate your reply
Does this work on steel ball bearings?
You can use regular metal drill bits and a mini vice on a drill press to drill steel ball bearings
price please
What is the cost
I went in india
How are
difficult if you need to make holes in more than 100 marbles 🤣🤣
When I drill for volume, I break the process into steps. First I drill the starter holes in all the spheres. Then I change the base to the counter part insert and then go back and finish drilling the back side of all the holes. I always try to minimize tool changes to save time

Wow. That's a lot of steps for a single bead, and so many ways for things to go wrong. Not to mention the mess and using a pliers on the bolt. Why are you using water instead of cutting oil?
If you are going to advertise yourself as "the best" at something, you should try a bit better at making videos by cutting out the "um"s and make sure your use of the tool is effortless, instead of struggling with the bolt. And use a decent mic. Plus, don't use a metal hammer if you tell your customers not to. You obviously tried to make this look professional with various camera angles, so go the extra step to make it look and sound even better.
Wow, alright; everybody's a computer-chair videographer. By all means, show us all how to do it better. This was the best way to drill a glass sphere I've seen yet, and at least the instructional was to the point. Beggars can't be choosers, Mr. Perfect.
@@pocket83squared wow i totally forgot about you since i unsubscribed.
@@Francois_Dupont _You_ weren't forgotten-you just aren't interesting enough to've been remembered in the first place. Having just searched out your comment history, it seems you scurried off after disagreeing with my use of a cheap hatchet.
You are just one of the many thousands of whiny, entitled, demanding, and stupid subscribers that I've intentionally shed over the years. Don't believe for a second that I feel the loss.
