Dryer Vent Through 2' Stone Wall

[jm2000]

heres an idea. is the wall solid.....or cavity.....you can buy a long masonary drill bit and "stitch drill" a hole.

Stitch drill - 2 feet thick!!

Doing it atm on a house built in 1837 for air brick as the customer dont want to hire a diamond cutter..takes time through a 18" +CAVITY WALL but thats what the customers payin for.

A lot of the Hamstone walls in Somerset have an infill of flint pieces in the centre which makes drilling really hard. Sometimes it's quicker to take out some stone, cut it with an angle grinder and rebuild it around the vent. It's only the face that needs to be really neat. Don't really fancy your chances with the stitch drilling.

Thats the way I would do it, quicker than drilling anyday
