Use Drill to Remove Furniture Plug

Video Transcript

"Ok. In the process we did before, with drilling small holes around the plug. We're going to assume for the purposes of this step, that that did not work. And, that we can't save the plug. So, we're going to have to break the plug to take it out. If we can't save the plug, we will want to save the hole. And, so what I'm going to do is drill into this plug about say two-thirds to three-quarters of a way through. And, then crack it out with a chisel. I'm going to use a drill that is not quite as big as the plug. But, close. You want to set the drill as close to the center as you can. And, press on it so it doesn't wander. Start your drill slowly. And, drill in about two-thirds to three-quarters of a way through the plug. A little bit more. There we go. Ok. Now, we have a hole down through the plug. And, our next step is going to be to to take the chisel and crack it in pieces. And, pull it out with our pliers."
