In the marine industry my biggest challenge is drilling broken stainless hardware, or drilling through backing plates !! Cobalt is the go to.....high speed steel dosent seem to last long against stainless steel !!

Yeah bart you are right stainless steel is hard to drill to be a softer material than case hardened. It really takes a harder bit than the stainless material to drill it.I remember when I first started years ago I made a call on a big truck fleet and had one of my best drill bits as a demo in my hand. I told the manager this bit would drill anything. Should not have told him that.we went in the shop and he showed me a leaf spring off of a transport truck, handed me a drill and said drill it. Unfortunately I was disappointed. Looked at him and he was bent over laughing. I mean the bit wouldn’t even start. Burned the bit up. But he ended up being one of my best customers.

An ice pick can get an indentation to start a pilot hole in fiberglass.
This guy didn't show how he got his pilot hole started..He drills the pilot in reverse though. Then runs the next bit in reverse too (?)

Roger,
Yep just pulling your leg once cooked garlic actually has a taste on the sweet side. Here's a recipe to try.

It's not the garlic that will kill a vampire - it's the raw leaks-now that knocks a buzzard off the $hit wagon.

I like your picture WD.

Thank you.

Right above the hat, in the picture of our property, that cluster of trees, that is where the old foundation is. We didn’t even know it was there when we bought the property. Not really sure when we found it. I can’t remember, but it was quite a while after we bought it. It’s right off our stinking driveway!
