My project leveling a subsided red clay brick patio is almost done. The last row of bricks (8 X 2-1/4 x 4") is internal -- not on the outside edge, and in a running pattern. Of course, the gap for the bricks is about 1/8 or 1/16" too narrow to fit the bricks in. So I figure I have to "shave" part of one course lengthwise. It's only about 8 bricks. I own a Makita 4" angle grinder. Can I score around the brick with a masonry blade and knock the waste away with a masonry chisel?' I gave my wet saw away when I moved. Would it be better to rent one? As ever, thanks very much!

Hi - I am trying to run ethernet from my attic, down the wall, and into a keystone jack. I did some measurements and started to drill a hole in the top plate where I calculated would be in between 2 studs. I used a regular 3/4" spade bit but as I drilled i kept hitting wood as far as my drill bit would go. 1) How deep should I have to drill into the top plate before I get into the wall cavity? I have a much longer flex bit I can use but before I drill further I wanted to ask about the depth. Im not sure if I just need to drill a bit further or if I've miscalculated and am just drilling down vertically into the stud.
