Hello,
I had this issue last year and with the help of someone from this newsgroup, I got 14 1/2" holes drilled through a 1/2" plate of 316L Stainless Steel. (the plate is around 28" x 10")
Now I have a new sculpture and need it done again.
The problem? We ended up going through 5 of my drill bits and 2 of his just to get all the holes I needed!!!
Can anyone make any suggestions as to the best way to do this?
Does anyone know of a Local (Seattle / Tacoma / Bremerton area) shop that can simply punch the 1/2" holes? Does anyone have the abiltiy in their shop to do this?
I'm an artist on a tight budget, but, no matter, I need to get it done.
Thank you, James, Port Orchard
