The clock in the kitchen is not only convenient, but also beautiful. If you like unusual and stylish interior items, you should be interested in the master class to create unusual watches from a porcelain plate.
To work you will need:
- 8 mm diameter drill for tiles and glass, you can also use a drill with a diamond tip;
- porcelain plate than thinner plate, the easier it will be drilled;
- Set for the manufacture of hours and batteries;
- protective glasses;
- molar tape;
- glass of water.
In order to prevent cracking of the plate during drilling, it is necessary to strengthen the middle of the dish. To do this, cover the middle of the plate two pieces of molar scotch cross on the cross.
Next, find the center of the plates and mark it with a marker on a painting tag.
Slowly start driving a plate in the center, stopping every few seconds. Between approaches, be sure to dock the tip of the drill into a glass with water in order to cool it. If noted that during drilling a plate becomes too hot, you can also cool it with water. Otherwise, the dish can crack.
