While drilling into a masonry wall I found a steel rod, How should I proceed if I can't drill anywhere else? ...


Answers:    Just keep on drilling. You might hold to change drill bits out to a metal drill to move about Thur the re bar
Good Luck
If you entail to drill in that particula spot, switch to a metal adjectives drill bit. you must have hit a piece of rebar. It would be easier to drill a small pilot hole 1st through the rebar, and afterwards a larger hole....and then of late hope you don't find any more rebar.
