Before core drills.

[Time's Ran Out]

13 years ago when my son did a college course for tiling, on day 2 they handed him a 6inch white tile and pin hammer and asked him to cut a hole in the tile. I asked him how many times did the instructor do it and he said 'none'.
As my 365 drills had been used in the 20mm size for a recent porcelain bathroom, the LED lights were cut by hand with a grinder from the back and hammer from the front.
