Franke FRagrnite Sink - Making Tap Holes

[Mark Elvin]

Received my Franke Fragranite sink yesterday & was wondering if the tap holes are as easy to make as they clain? They say simply pop an 8mm punch over the sticker that marks the weak points & strike hard - http://www.franke.co.uk/Page.aspx?SP=265

Is it really that easy, I wondering if I'd be better off using the grinding tip on the Dremmel to grind it out from the back as I'm poop scared of breaking the sink.

I worry about the sink breaking though.

The first sink that was delivered was broken clean in half before it even came out of the box.

Just bang it out, make sure you've got the right hole first though.

I've had the same problem late the other night, lack of concentration on the job in hand, stuck it in the wrong hole, it came out all brown!!!!!!!
