I used to hate drilling tiles but now do it. Get the bracket and put some masking tape where you need to drill the holes. Get a good tile drill bit and drill into masking tape. Good luck.


What material this drill bit is made from?


You'll need a standard masonry bit, Tungsten Carbide tipped, (unless the tiles are hard porcelain rather than simple ceramics when you'll need a drill especially for that).

to drill into ceramic tiles which is what that looks like to me. mark the position. cover with masking tape. you should still see the mark. turn the hammer off on your drill and go for it. you may find it necessary to cool the bit occasionally. they last longer then.

Who replaced my russian word (was meant to say 'congratulations') with meaningless symbols? You are russian, right boris?

What you need is a 'tank port'! (as opposed to 'car port)

I am more jewish-like but russian is my primary language. You see garbled text because you don't have support for russian language in your computer.

Tank and car ports? What are we porting here? All i have is 4 USB ports currently :dunno:

Priviet!

The garbled text is showing as normal now! Did it translate ok?
I went to Moscow years ago. I have Jewish, Russian and German heritage. I particularly liked Red Square and ironically, the Russian word for red and beautiful is the same! I also experienced the opera, the zoo, St. Petersberg, very cheap vodka and cigarettes, Dynamo vs Spartak (I was wearing bright orange and sitting in the wrong stand!), Russian cuisine, Kvac (bread-based drink) and plenty more.

In England, a basic 'lean-to' on the side of a house (big enough to get a car under) is called a 'car port'.
