    Nice video! I initially learned the hard way that a regular drill bit would not drill through terra cotta or ceramic! I now use the bit that drills through brick! Matter of fact it will drill through a wall!

    A needed DIY solution for many.
    Let’s not overlook the actual tool. I had a plain inexpensive corded drill but since it’s not variable and did not have a adjustable torque for use as a “screwdriver” and my first attempts to drill into a terracotta pot was a big failure and caused the pot to be ruined. Wrong tool for the job even though I had the correct bit. Live and Learn.

      Variable really does help, however you don't need adjustable torque (unless you mean adjusting the speed with the trigger) for use as a screwdriver. If you had problems, it was probably the drill bit. I use the bit that drills brick. The diamond one is probably the best however the brick bit will drill through terra cotta or ceramic or a brick wall.

      Yeah I’m a bit hesitant on breaking my first pot bc I don’t have the right bit or don’t wet the pot enough…😮

    I put holes in ceramics (glazed and unglazed) all the time. I have a carbide bit that fits in a Dremel. It will pierce a hole really quick....about 1/8 inch diameter. Then move the bit in a circular motion until the desired hole size is reached.

    I have a couple of large resin pots. I want to turn them into garden hose pots. To do so I will need to drill a hole near the bottom, but on the side of each one. The hole needs to be big enough to get a garden hose connector through.
    Have you had any expierence with resin pots?

    i used a hammer and nails to drill the holes. you have to be careful, but it hasn't failed me yet
