Googled for previous post with pictures of examples of Christmas
decorative blocks with paintings and bow around the block. Don't
recall what newsgroup was used for posting. A post following the
pictures post provided a source for diamond drills, lube and material
for making a dam to contain the lube while drilling. No luck
searching for posts. Pointers welcomed.

I have a friend that used to make these. I don't remember him saying
he needed lube etc. I think he just used a regular drill bit. I think
he wen't through a handfull of bits but still sounds easer than using
lube.

Build a dam out of plumber's putty, put in some valve-grinding compound
& oil, use a piece of brass tubing with notches filed in it to drill the
hole. Keep lifting it so it can pick up fresh abrasive .. .. works
like a charm and is cheap.

I think any lube will make a mess inside when the drill breaks through.
Depending on the type of glass block, it may be a lot of work to clean the
inside.
