I use a cordless electric drill. quick and as long as you hold the pot secure no danger either.

or get a slim piece of metal and a flame source and melt the holes in the bottem . this is quick and wear the plastic melts back it thickens the edges reinforcing them . it also has no chance of cracking the plastic .

Power drill and a big drillbit does the trick for me

I agree with NP ... I've heated a metal skewer over a flame in the past ... makes a hole very quickly!

drills can break pots sometimes its swings and roundabouts realy .

I have used a heated metal skewer for years - just make sure it isn't the one you test fruit cakes with!

and be carefull how you heat it up as the end your holding could get hot to .

Hi, An old Wooden handled small screwdriver heated up is what i use.
