I saw this sort of trick on social media, but wasn't sure how "true" it was. So I searched and found this! Thank you for this video. Now I know how to put holes in bowls for miniature fountains.

How long do we have to submerged the pot in the water? This is pretty fascinating. Thanks for showing the techniques

[@HanDIYman007]

About 20 seconds then you can do the next steps. 😉

@@HanDIYman007 thank you for the reply. I am bit scared of breaking it but willing to try. Thanks for showing us the techniques

@@Poonambam-z2t If you're not comfortable yet, I suggest that you practice first with pots that you are okay to dispose of.

Will this work on unglazed pots? I have a turtle pot but it doesn’t have drain holes and I don’t have a plastic pot that will fit it well.

[@HanDIYman007]

I'm not sure. One way to find out is to try it out but I suggest you test it first on something disposable (if you have any extra)?

[@vilmaduquaine8121]

My vases are big & thick, can I still do method #1? (Want to use them as planters.

[@mendedandwhole]

Very helpful thank u! ❤

[@HanDIYman007]

You're so welcome!

[@acanhasan]

Thanks for the tip

[@HanDIYman007]

No problem!

[@amberjackson8074]

Can you add more then one drainage hole using these methods?

[@HanDIYman007]

Yes, of course!

[@coppermoon2469]

What if you put tape on the inside also ?

[@MegaJiv]

Can we do it on melamine bowl ??

[@HanDIYman007]

Melamine is a sort of plastic so i think the drill method will work -- normal drill mode, not hammer mode.

[@IceyIcey2023]

Those look like flooring nails...thank you so much for a wonderful how to. I can't wait to use pretty bowls and cups as planters. This is so exciting!

[@HanDIYman007]

Enjoy! You can use whatever nail you have available.

[@komalthakur9812]

I am trying to make hole in the pot with nail for the past 2 hours. Not even 50mm penetration was achieved. What kind of ceramic is this

[@HanDIYman007]

perhaps you're not pounding your hammer hard enough?

[@ABWeaver]

Dang! I like the music so much I forgot to watch!
