I need to install a vent in my garage. Nothing fancy, basically just a hole in the wall. I've already got the metal vent that will attach to my ducting.
Soo... turns out the siding on my house looks like wood but it isn't. More like concrete. I installed an outdoor thermostat using drill bits made for wood and it was tough going to say the least.
How do I drill a 6" hole in this siding? Is there some type of giant masonry bit, or will I have to sawzall that fucker?

Own a 12 gauge? Stand about a foot away and blast that fucker through, easy peasy. :grin:

You could drill a series of tiny holes all the way around and do it that way or by a diamond bit or even a Milwaukee combo bit . But if you use a 6" bit be careful because that is a lot of torc and it can get a way from you in a hurry.

Thanks for the help guys.
I wonder if I could just break off the end and cover the ugliness with a flange?
Drill a few holes and give it a tap?

I have no idea what I'm talking about... :eyesmoke:

I did the vent hole in my cab with a 1/2 ' drill bit making holes every couple inches around my drawn circle, then connected the dots with a sawsall, slapped up a ducting connector with cover and done

That's a great idea! :clap:
Seriously.
I've done some large appliance hunting with 12 gauge (3" 00 buck). At close range, it will blow a hole in a refrigerator you can stick your fist through. It would make a dandy hole in my siding! :twisted:
Unfortunately, there's a house behind me.
And it's probably illegal inside city limits.
:cry:

Hmm... I've got the ammo. It's over 20 years old, but I bet it still works fine.
Does ammo "expire" and become inert over time? I've never had a problem with old ammo. Most of it is sealed with lacquer so oxidation would be minimal. Hell I've got a couple of "spam cans" of Romanian 7.62X39 that were packed in the 70s and I bet that shit still shoots fine.

That's how we turn a cranial flap, draw multiple holes and connect the dots!

Actually people on the street turned cranial flaps using those too LOL. But this is a seriously great idea. I'd make sure to consume mass quantities first.

I believe it does, slowly, depending on storage. I am trying to remember something I read in a Gun Digest decades ago. Your mileage may vary. I semi-remember WWII issue that has been perfectly stored can still be used, but expect an increase in fizzles and duds. The worst is if the weak round leaves the bullet in the bore. Next trigger pull = ruined gun.

So I'd fire ammo as old as I am ... but not in a gun I don't mind ruining. That one in a few hundred bad round seems a poor chance to me.
