as title suggests, can these be used to drill a hole in the side of the wine bottle to run some cable through? I plan on putting a rubber grommet thingy into the hole to protect the wire from sharp edges.
Hi Canderson90,
These drills would certainly be capable of cutting a clean hole in a glass bottle, but this would not be possible 'freehand' i.e. using a hand-held drill, because of the curvature. A pillar drill/drill press would be required to ensure that the drill bit does not 'wander off' and the bottle would need to be carefully clamped/secured in such a way that it would not shatter. PPE including safety goggles would also be essential.
Thanks for using Screwfix Q&A. JT
