Been looking around for some ideas on drilling out spot welds on panels and some say to use a spot weld drill bit and some say normal bit will do? Where is a good place to get a spot weld bit and how much would I be looking at to buy? Thanks in advance

Hi 65coupe,

Try 'Blackwoods' or Auto One if you have them within your area/suburb.

The last time we had used one, I think they came in at around the $45 + mark...

Cheers,

I bought this one of Ebay, works great. Make sure you get extra blades.

Cool, might give them a try.. How many extra blades did you order?

just the 3 but in hindsight I would have ordered an additional 3. I suppose it depends on how many spot welds you have to do

Got to do the cowl panel. But can't order the part till work pays me the 500 they owe me.
