Wife has gotten a cast iron kettle pot and wants to put plants into it for our backyard garden. She has asked me to drill holes into the bottom of the kettle so water can drain out. So what type of drill bit can I use that won't disintegrate when I try to drill the holes?
I want to drill small holes in metal, plastic, ceramic, etc so that I can add a link to make charms. I need to solder as well. I need info on the supplies/accessories needed (what I need for soldering and drill bits needed) Thank you so much!

I already found the answer here from 11 months ago, but it's not working. I twist the sleeve to the pic of the drill, I put the drill in reverse, I hold the end of the drill and press the trigger. Nothing. I've used this drill many times and its never locked on me. It WONT budge. All I wanna do is stick a bit in and drill some holes, but it won't unlock
Please help me. I've been trying for 24 hours off and on.

What kind of drill do I need to easily drill holes into the cement sub-floor of my house (for a flooring project)? I've already tried two different types of masonry bits with my cordless, 18 volt Bosch (model 3850). I'm thinking that the bit isn't the problem, it's the drill. It takes about 10 minutes and a way too much effort just to drill one hole. Any suggestions?
What is the best make metal cobalt drill bits? I`m drilling through 4mm angle iron which has just dulled 4 new bits, slow speed with water to cool. I`ve tried Black & Decker which were useless and Bosh titanium which also failed . I`ve quite a few holes left to drill so need a really good quality bit that will not dull too quickly
I bought concrete drill bits in the past to fasten the a threshold to a concrete slab. The drill bit went in about 1/4 in and went dull. The drill bits are expensive. I used a cordless and corded drill. But I got the same results. Now I want to work on a bigger project on my concrete deck. What tools an materials can I use to drill holes to anchor some 6x6 pressure treated uprights to the concrete slab? I want to build a pergola but don't want my drill bit budget to be the same as the lumber and hardware budgets.
I just got a cordless drill gun and want to know if i can use it to drill holes (abt .5 cm wide and 1-2 cm deep) into BRICK WALLS. here's the drill gun specs:
18V, upto 900 rpm.
The instruction manual didn't help. Sorry if this is an elementary question but i don't know much about drill guns.
I am drilling through 1/4 inch thick steel using titanium bits. I have a lot of holes to make but the bits keep getting dull. Or is there another way I can go about it or tool to use

I've just bought my first house and the previous owners kindly (?) plastered over any picture hanging holes so I have to drill all my own. I'm a girl, I've never done this before and I can't get anyone to help me for ages! What kind of things should I know before I get started? I have a cordless hammer drill suitable for drilling these kinds of holes so what else?!
