Kite winder stair build Pt5 fitting the railings, Final. Drilling tiles Marcrist PG750x diamond bit

[@iangrange7124]

The railings came good in the end mate, lovely bit of contrast, but the stair treads are a work of art 👍

[@Gidjoiner]

Thanks much appreciated 👍😊 I'm glad you like it & yes even if I say so myself it all turned out well, 👍

[@DavidHarding-bo7jz]

Good to see that you’re back Gid and on the mend. Have learn’t more from your videos than all the others on youtube.

[@Gidjoiner]

Thankyou & I'm glad to hear that, that just why I share 👍😊 Yep feeling a lot better, not 100% yet but 10x better than last yr, we'll see how this yr goes but I'm getting back into it & I'll keep filming 👍

[@andyrogers5199]

Those welds looked fine in the end mate! I echo what others are saying that it’s great to see you back and posting again - more importantly that you are feeling better 👍🏼👍🏼

[@Gidjoiner]

Thanks much appreciated & glad you think so. Working it out, cutting & installing I have no problem with, sticking it all together with a bi of weld should be the easy bit... shouldn't it 😂👍 These are from 2022 & there's more to come from this job that are mainly woodworking, then we'll have to see how this yr goes but I'm not stopping working or filming 👍

[@robenhenni8463]

That turned out very nicely, you are almost as good with steel as you are with wood 😀👍🏻🇳🇱

[@Gidjoiner]

😂 Thanks much appreciated, glad you think so 👍 The working out, cutting & installing I have no problems there, it's the gluing together bit with welds that gets me, should be easy shouldn't it 🤔😂

Great work Gid. We wait a while due to you not being well, now theyre coming thick and fast and worth waiting for 👍👍👍👍 Take care mate, hasten slowly!

[@Gidjoiner]

Thanks much appreciated 👍😊 Yep, I needed to watch all the many clips I had just to remember what I did & once organised I had to then edit while I still had them in mind. There's a few more to come from 2022 which will be mainly woodworking, & I'm not sure how this yr will work out reg work & fitness but I sort of need to get these out of the way so I can move forward with filming.. 👍 You take care too 👍

Hello mate great work that looks realy smart and clean. Really good to have u back fit and healthy .

[@Gidjoiner]

Thankyou, much appreciated. I'm feeling a lot fitter & healthier, not 100% but 10x better than last yr 👍 There's more vids to come from 2022 mainly woodworking & we'll se how this yr goes, but I'm not retiring yet 😁 & I'll keep filming & uploading 👍

You did well with the four holes in the porcelain tiles that Marcrist bit did well I have used the wax cored ones but usually you struggle to get more than two holes drilled before the bit is completely finished. The black powder coated metal and the wooden stairs look really good, excellent job.

[@Gidjoiner]

Thanks much appreciated, glad you like it 👍 Yeah, some people on here have recommended the Bosh multi bit, the tiler said these tiles were hard & recommended the Marcrist bit, I tried other bits I had & nothing even scratched the surface so I doubt the Bosch bit would've faired much better.

Great work Gid, that railing is going no where in a hurry

[@Gidjoiner]

Thanks much appreciated 👍😊 It was a bit tight, the 3mm clearance I gave when making it wasn't quite enough so when it needed a little persuasion to go in with the big hammer it wasn't going anywhere & once it was screwed in def not, 😂

The Bosch multi drill bit from Screwfix is ace for drilling tiles . The railing looks good.

[@Gidjoiner]

Thanks much appreciated 👍 Glad you like them 😊 I tried a few bits, drilling slowly without hammer using a decent SDS bit & inc a Bosch expert hex 9 drill bit (the one I tried to describe in the vid) but none even scratched the surface of these tiles. I think the tiler suggested the one I used in the vid. It'll prob be a while before I have to drill tiles like this again & we'll see...

Hi Gid amazing to see you back again, I use the Bosch multi construction 6mm drill bit I find it amazing for tiles and timer into brick might be worth a look for cost.

Great video, Great job Gid. Being nosey here what phone do you use for video and what editing software do you use please. Regards Allan.

[@Gidjoiner]

Thanks much appreciated, glad you like it 👍 I use my phone because it's always in my pocket, work comes before filming if that makes sense, it's a Samsung S23 Ultra, I also use a GoPro11. I've destroyed the mics on a couple of phones in the past due to the high noise of tools, I haven't done much work so we'll have to see how this one goes. I use Vegas Pro21 for editing, it was owned by Sony who let it fall into disrepair, Magix bought it & are trying to update it but it's old software so that isn't easy, it really needs a complete rewrite but that would be a massive undertaking & they only have a small team, they have made massive improvements in the last couple of yrs tho & there's more to come 👍 I like Vegas's layout & just the general look & feel, there's free editors like Resolve but I don't like them, it's hard to explain why. You can download the Trial that gives 1mth free usage if you're interested www.vegascreativesoftware.com/gb/vegas-pro/.

[@BOBBY-et9xb]

It should have been quicker to drill with an electric drill. More torx.

[@Gidjoiner]

That BOSCH GSB 18V-110 C drill I was using has 110nm of torque, that thing will rip your arm off if you're not careful. Torque wasn't an issue, I didn't have the trigger pulled all the way in most of the time so it wasn't the drilling that slowed the speed, the tiles are really hard & I was trying to get the best cutting speed, fast on some, slow on others,

[@BOBBY-et9xb]

[@TheToolnut]

​@@GidjoinerI have the same drill Gid, I always put the front handle on if I'm using a hole saw or a large diameter bit. It would snap your wrist in a flash.

[@Gidjoiner]

Yeah n those handles are twice the length of a reg angle grinder type handle for more leverage, & the collar on the drill where the handle mounts it's ribbed for better grip 😮😂
