@web_goddess@aus.social Those fire pits look like they are a couple of millimeters thick, so you'll likely need a stronger drill bit made of cobalt. I'd go with a 4-6mm bit, to effectively drain but minimise size of hole. This looks reasonable: https://www.bunnings.com.au/full-boar-5-5mm-m35-cobalt-drill-bit_p0331109 However you make the hole, make sure you're wearing long sleeves and eye protection — metal splinters are painful and harmful.

    @auxesis@infosec.exchange Rodd says: “I used a high-speed bit and cutting fluid. A better drill bit might work. I suspect I need a centre punch to get it started, and probably applying a lot more downward pressure on it.”
