Not bike related but...
We've recently had the bathroom redone, new suite etc and most importantly, new tiles.
I built a new floor standing cabinet from a popular Swedish manufacturer and it looked good, but... I have a toddler who is strong beyond his years and was worried he might pull it over on himself. In fact, I knew he would, let's not mess about. The cabinet is 7' tall and you wouldn't want to lift it, so the thought of him dragging it over didn't really appeal.
So, to secure it to the wall. I fitted a small bracket to the top, but needed to secure this to the *tiled* wall. 2 Command Hooks later I figured I was going to have to drill the tile. the new tile, which SWMBO loves, and has only been up a week......
After a week of nervous fretting about how to drill without cracking the tile, and lots of research online, telling me a normal carbide masonry drill would be fine for ceramic tiles.... I eventually bought a proper 5mm tile/glass drill from B&Q for £8.
Cue nervous sweating, gentle application of said bit to tile and................. it went through it like a bloody lightsaber, no cracks, no fuss, no bother..... I could have saved myself a lot of worry by just getting the right tool for the job first time.
So, the moral of the story, life is short, your other half terrifies you, buy the right tool first time, save yourself grief....
