Ok I know i can drill a whole load of little holes in a circle and then
knock it out, but is there such a thing as a 4" drill bit that will do
this more easily?Why not just punch a cinderblock-sized hole with a 5 pound mallet,

and then stuff mortar in everywhere that's not part of the 4" hole?


Leave it to the architect to go with a figure/ground study.
