Re: Best method of drilling a wall plate?




Hi Darren
To drill plastic plates i modify the drill bit so that the
sides are flat (as Jonathon mentioned) with a small point in the middle
....drill a very small centre hole first and then use the modified drill
bit...works quite well...stops it from cracking.
