Has anyone done glass blocks as crafts?

Looking for ideas and how to drill the hole to put lights inside
the blocks?
We have used the Diamond drill bit…very small
size and some blocks still crack or break the
corners off. I have heard some people say to
put them in water while drilling…has this worked
for anyone? What do you do with your blocks?
