Bill, I am pretty sure that my friend used a copper 3/8" pipe. I did not get a chance to search but I believe that he found the information on the net. I have a 3/8" glass bit that I used to make a lamp out of a beer bottle.

Hoom, do you know what the pipe was made out of Lenny? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lenny McHugh Sent: Tuesday, May 29, 2007 8:52 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] Drilling holes in a mirror I have drilled holes in glass several times. There is a special drill bit for glass that you can use. I made a dam around the area and filled with some oil before drilling. The other way that I have seen someone drill glass with a short piece of pipe and they cut two perpendicular slots in the end and used that end as the drill bit. It sounded crazy to me but made a very nice clean hole.

My wife bought some sconces she wants to mount on the mirror. Is there a good, safe, and given my skill level, easy way to drill holes in a mirror?
