Also probably can be found at Michaels or A.C.Moore, if you have them where you live. Good Luck!

Bologarvin Answers: RE: Glass Block With Holes In Them We haven't been able to find any. However, someone who paints them and puts white string lights in them, told me to put tape on the sidewall first to catch the glass pieces and help in drilling. Then, SLOWLY with a bit for ceramic, drill out the hole. Even with care, expect them to break as there is a gas inside from manufacturing. Same advise came from a building Big Box store. It can be done though (12/01/2006) By Ro RE: Glass Block With Holes In Them Use a glass bit, 1/2 in size, it will cost about $13.00.It is best if used in a drill press. Build a dam of plumbers putty about 2" in diameter. Fill with water and keep water level up. This cools the glass and the bit.Drill at steady but not too fast pace. Patience! Good Luck.

I think 5/8 would be best or 3/4 (10/01/2007) By carriebearie Report Spam or Abuse
