Question:

In Birmingham, AL, whats the name of the broken-down dirty area near the steel mills populated by poor whites

It was the closest thing to a white ghetto in the USA that I ever saw. What‘s the name of that dirty, smokey, polluted Birmingham, Alabama neighbourhood or town populated predominanatly by low income whites?

Answer:

I can't recommend chiseling a hole, it will likely shatter the pot. First I'd attempt to use the drill you already tried, but I would proceed by first re-sharpening the drill bit using a grinder to provide a good edge, then I would find a hammer-drill. Borrow one from a friend, they are common but not everyone has one and to buy one for just the one project doesn't make sense. A hammer drill produced low impact while rotating the drill bit. I've used them with great success on many other types of projects like drilling in hard, solid rock, using a standard masonry drill bit. Adding a little water to lubricate and cool the drilling process may help.
MMMMmmmmmmm.There are bits out there that work, just make sure it's made to drill through ceramic. It will be a bit spendy, should have saved the hassle and extra cost by going to Lowes or HomeDepot and gotten your pots there with holesmuch cheaper. GOOD LUCK?
Sharton? there are many areas outside of Birmingham which fit your description.
The Birmingham Municipal Trailer parkoh wait that describes all of Birmingham!! I'm bad!!
Are you talking about U.S. Steel? there is Dolomite, Fairfield, Ensley, Westend.
