Didn't forget, just reminding myself, the hard way, again.

Excess metal anywhere will NOT be a problem.

Saw the pro's drill thru a granite countertop on HGTV this weekend. They used a rubber gasket to hold water on the site and a special bit. It looked well worth hiring out for it, TS. Good luck to you.

TS,
Naw. I was going to suggest checking with an expert. I don't think they would mind if you called and asked.

I wouldn't trust the Home Depot kind of expert.

Just use a carbide single point chisel and tap lightly.

We're going about this careful like.

I'm checking my knifemaking liability insurance to see if it covers granite countertop work.

If it doesn't, we're in good shape.

That's the same granite we recently put in my Iowa City Townhouse.

Why did we choose that one? Our youngest daughter (Prof of Philosophy of Science), and the mother of two toddlers, recommended it...Her rationale, it's the same color as food. Made sense to me!
