For gluying in eyebolts and rings, the planking sometimes only needs to be pre-drilled from one side.
Drilling through the entire side of the ship should be avoid, otherwise a hole will also be made on the opposite side.
When drilling in areas that cannot be seen later, it is possble to drill through.
Stationary machines usually have a drilling depth indicator.
For hand-held drills, I mark the drilling depth on the cutters or drills with a black marker. The marker is difficult to see when drilling. Here in the example drilling depth 2 mm. Are there other possibilities?
Have a nice weekend
