Genuine gathered sea glass is more fragile than themanufacturedtype available in craft stores; it can be easilyfractured with adrill bit. One must take care to go slowly and workboth sides ifcreating a hole. Immersing the sea glass in waterfirst will helpto temper the glass to prevent chipping, burring orbreaking. Thismeasure will also protect against breathing in tinyparticles ofglass while drilling.
