Drilling a hole in a wall

[glalt]

I used a masonry bit that was long enough to go all the way through. When I knew I was about to break through, I turned off the hammer drill setting and just went slow. I had no break out, just a nice smooth hole.

Good tip, cheers.

Might be a good end result to show the finished job and how you approached it......

Indeed I will. While i was away, my tool storage was relocated so things like the hammer drill hasn't been rediscovered yet. But I do have my masonry bits!

Piece of piss.

4 mm pilot, long 6 mm with hammer/normal option per @glalt, 10 mm finish. No blowouts.

Hehehe...good one.
Worked well. Only thing is, will the cable fit through a 10mm hole?
Or rather what if you need to loop from there with another cable.?

There's three solid drawn 2.5 mm wires so an easy fit. Pictures to follow.

Thai craftsman, as rare as a Scunny win these days.

BTW, one of the moobahn ladies has set up a somtam stand right next to our Yai's allotment across the soi. I have my daily stinky Isaan food fix there, thus ensuring her unemployed electrician boyfriend doesn't molotov my braw new nail salon with a fiery half-bottle of lao khao.
