Our Recommended Tools

Dremel Multi Tool

You will need a rotary tool for drilling sea glass and we couldn't recommend this Dremel Multi Tool enough to use alongside our diamond coated drill bits. You will need to use a multi chuck alongside the Dremel, when using diamond coated drill bits.

Diamond Coated Drill Bits

These high quality diamond coated drill bits are essential for drilling pieces of sea glass and can also be used to drill gemstonespearls and ceramics.

When drilling sea glass, it's important to assess the safety within your workspace by making sure you are wearing eye protection, such as our anti mist safety goggles and that electric parts of the rotary tool is kept away from water at all times.
