Why the edge? Why not the top?

The surface comes polished already from the quarry. They use multi-million dollar polishing machines. It's best not to touch the face. That's a different beast to re-polish the face.

Does the power on the grinder matter? I need to cut one hole, one time. I don't mind buying the bit, but the grinder is pretty expensive. Harbor Freight has a 4 amp one for cheap. I dont need it to last but I was thinking the power is the factor here for cutting through granite.

for granite will silicon carbide brushes work as well? i see in your video you use diamond brushes. I'm asking because silicon carbide seam easier to find.

This is a great video, thank you! Just out of curiousity, is there any concern about potentially cracking the granite while doing this? Or does the taping help with that?
@GraniteByJay2 ай бұрын
Hello. There is always a possibility for cracking. The type of stone makes a big difference, but here are some things to watch out for. 1. Heat - If some materials get hot enough, they will crack or pop the surface. Both are bad. To prevent this you can use a spray bottle with water and take breaks to let the bit and stone cool down. In the video you can see I only drill for about 15 seconds. Than I pull out the bit and let it air cool. 2. Vibrations - High frequency sounds, rattling, and unglued vibrations can all break the stone. But it has to be extreme. Pressing really hard is bad too. Let the bit do the work. The worst part is just getting the bit started. After that, you're good to go. Hoops this helps. Thanks for watching.

@GraniteByJay2 ай бұрын
@@AllisonSkiffdotcom I would use or rent a variable speed angle grinder. We use an STS. The angle grinders that have one speed are way too fast for drilling with a core bit. The bit and stone will get too hot.

@@AllisonSkiffdotcom Thanks for reaching out. Much appreciated. And go back to making videos. I checked to see if you were a creator. You made a couple videos in the past. You have the talent. One thing I'll say that I've learned. I have 4 other channels on KZbin. The one that is doing the best is the one I created just to help people with things I knew. I wasn't hunting for views or subs. Just wanted to help people. That's this channel. I would take helping one person over getting thousands of views and subs any day. I see that in your channel. Keep trying. People will know you are only trying to help them. That goes a long way. Best of luck. And try a couple holes on scrap material first. It takes a feel you won't get the first time.

Hallelujah! My Tea-for-Two has been saved!! I thought I was going have to look at the river of rust that coursed the entire length of the tub from the faucet to the drain for the rest of my days. Pardon the imagery, but it looked like a crime scene. There are at least a couple long stories around this as to how it go that way, such as, why it happened and why I couldn't get to it for over a year, etc. Before all that happened I thought I would never get the anti-slip to look new ever again until saw this video. Holy moly! It looks better than it did before my plumbing puked rust! Thank you so much for this. When I buy the Kohler cast iron cleaner (I have second Tea-for-Two and two Kohler toilets) I'll be sure to click through here. BTW- Loved your intro. And, your music is great. I was a figure skater and took notice that in this video there are several excellent choreographic moments - tub-cleaning to music or vice versa? Thank you!

A small bead of silicone is fine to hold the sink but don't let it ooze out to use as the caulk. Silicone doesn't clean up well when dirty and and thin edge from working it will peel up after time if scrubbing. It may look pretty at first but it won't take long to look grungy. And the clear yellows.

All stone joints need to be scored on both sides giving the glue something to grab onto. If you don’t it can fall apart especially quartz which is non porous material. I’d wear some steel toed boots if I was carrying that around
@benjaminarambula1651Ай бұрын
If you work with stone try it without scoring it and then tell me it doesn’t hold, and yes I’ve done it with quartz, giant islands and they didn’t fall apart, we even stood it on the apron to pick it up and lay it down and it was fine. Epoxy is strong. Will scoring it help, yes, will it fall apart without scoring, no.
