DD wants to hang a sky-chair type of thing from the ceiling in her apartment. She said they were liberal about hanging things, and I told her that perhaps that didn't mean she could hang furniture from the ceiling.
In any case, she used a stud finder to find a joist, which she said is 6 inches wide. When she tries to drill into it, the drill just stops after .25 inches.
I'm guessing that she's trying to drill into a massive iron I-beam. Anyone know what's likely to be in the ceiling in an old brick apartment building?
