Subject: core drill bit

What's the proper way to use a core drill bit? I bought one of the
scintered diamond tipped types, 1.5" x 12", put it on my angle grinder, adjusted the
speed to a low rpm. this is a bit that is supposed to work on an angle
grinder.

there is so much vibration when the bit hits the stone surface it wants to
bounce off the stone. once i was able to get a hole started, the bit doesn't
cut into the marble. i could only get down about 1/2" into the marble.

i did try it on wonderstone and it cut into the stone far better than
marble, but still the same vibration issue.
