First drill the stone

I always drill in cool water using a diamond coated drill bit in a drill press. Let the drill do the work. It takes patience and should not be rushed.

    how do you keep the stone in place while you're drilling? I only have a pendant drill so I forsee a couple of problems I just wondered if you have any advice? Absolutely love your work.

    Thanks for the nice comments! I actually just hold the stone with my fingers when I drill. A pendant drill (Flex Shaft) should work just fine.
