How do you bore a big hole? Use a spade bit to make a hole larger than you can with a regular drill bit. Here's how.
Difficulty: Moderately Easy
1. Step One
Identify a spade bit by its shape: it looks a little like a flat shovel with a point in the center of the end.
2. Step Two
Make a pilot hole first with a regular 1/8-inch bit at the center of where your hole will be.
3. Step Three
Line the point of the spade bit up with the pilot hole.
4. Step Four
Start the drill motor at a slow speed and hold it steady as the bit grabs the wood.
5. Step Five
Increase the drill speed steadily.
