I have tried everything I can to avoid needing to remove all the way to the bottom bell (that sits on my slab) but, alas, it appears I have no choice as I am unable to drain my utility sink and washer properly due to the height at which I would have to cut the cast to use a regular fernco. So I plan on using a fernco donut.
Anyhow, seems easy enough, just a tedious task to drill out the lead. I see references to get "cheap, but not too cheap" bits and plan to go through several. I get that, but will any old regular drill bit do? Anyone have any suggestions of bits that work for them? It is a 4" cast pipe, what size bit should I use to gain maximum effectiveness at each hole drilled? Thanks!
