Re: Drilling through carpet

To be on the safe side I might try a combination of these suggestions. Hole punch, heat up the fibers and then wrap the bit in electrical tape. I learned the hard way not to just go for it. I ended up with a broken drill bit that I could not get out of the carpet so I just had to leave it in there. That was years ago and the carpet has sense been replaced.
