Windshield Repair Forum

Screen an I don't have the sear break tool or the bullseye tool, so I drilled a bit to make the glass a little more fragile and created a bullseye within... I tried to make them without the drill holes and the either windshield spidercracked everywhere lol, ill post up a picture tonight

How far down are you drilling to anchor these cracks?

I use the depth gauge to drill so I make sure I go to the right depth everytime. Attach is a photo of the windshield when I tried to use a hammer and screwdriver with out drilling a hole =p

Why not just go to Home Depot etc and buy an adjustable automatic center punch?

Thanks I'm going to check on that.

You can find them cheap at Harbor Freight too. Probably will have to grind down the end so it's not so sharp, otherwise it will shatter the glass. I haven't tried this but maybe you could get a small nut for a size 6 or 8 machine screw and thread a rubber band through it and use it like a slingshot to make your chip.

You can also get bent hook tool, it makes a bullseye, most home improvement places have them for around 10 dollars. their usually with the screwdrivers
