Is the rotation of the drill motor correct?
Is the rotation of the drill motor correct?
And for a 2" diameter hole, that translates to closer to 60RPM - meaning a half inch VARIABLE SPEED drill, running close to the low end of it's range.
Especially strange since my father had died and I was a little boy, 10 when we moved there, and yet my uncle never did anything for my mother or me except have us to dinner 2 or 3 times a year. And that was mostly the effort of his wife and his maid.
Dusted?? Who dusts the bottom of the door? And why take the door off its hinges to do so?
Thanks for all your advice, I did end up drilling through the door, with some difficulty. I was putting a lot of pressure on the door, the metal actually bent a bit by the time I was done. I would definetly try a lower speed next time with some oil and take the door off the hinges and put it on the ground. The way I got it to work was a lot of pressure and rotating the pressure around the edges of the hole saw as it cut, I also used a punch and put multiple dents around the cut to help, still took me a longer time(15-20 min) than I thought it would take to do it. I wish I would have known what I know now.
That's how it usually works. :)
Glad you got your hole drilled.

Next time get a carbide tipped saw.
