RE: [GSAS-Member] Drilling Tanks
Mark,
I have an out-of-state friend that has drilled hundreds of tanks. I could
give you his number if you like. I believe you need to have a drill press,
a diamond hole saw bit and your glass cannot be tempered or it will shatter.

I had mine done at Issaquah Glass. I think it cost me about $20 per hole. If
this is a smaller tank with thin glass you might want to think twice about
it. My son-in-law had them do a 80 gallon and it wouldn't hold and broke the
whole back of the tank. My 150 has been fine for the last 3 years though.

Has anyone drilled glass tanks before? And if so, do you still have the
special hole saw bit... and of course I was wondering what size it is and if
I can borrow it.
I've got some tanks I am interested in drilling!
