For most materials, we suggest that you submerge the item in a small amount of water and work alternately from both sides of the bead. Submerging the item in a bit of water helps prevent noxious dust. (Drilling/cutting most shell, for example, creates dust that is harmful for your lungs.)
By working from both ends of the bead, you can enlarge the hole to the size you want, keeping in mind that it will be slightly smaller at the midpoint, than it will be at the outside edges of the hole.

EURO TOOL Bead Reamer Set
☆ Rising StarStaff Choice

Avg Rating: 10 /10
EURO TOOL® diamond-coated bead reamer set. Comes with three (long, wide and small) interchangeable diamond-coated tips, stored in the handle. EURO TOOL is known for producing innovative & quality jewelry making tools & supplies. Too large to fix most poorly drilled gemstone beads but perfect for many other "problem" beads. Works best when lubricated with water. Or, for enlarging holes (in metal) for riveting, use a bit of beeswax or Cut Lube. Replacement tips are available to purchase separately.
My original tool did not have instructions so overtime it lost its grit. Read and follow the great instructions/tips provided here. Water is a must, plus it helps with the dust created. I still find uses for my old drill.
