Anyone drill tanks?

Hello!
I have a 56g tank I'd like to get drilled and since my husband has no experience drilling glass, we'd rather have someone who is comfortable doing it, drill it. :)
I know I have seem on one of the threads a place that was recommended to buy overflows from. If someone could please tell me the name of the place again, I would greatly appreciate it.
 
I purchased some hole saws on Ebay to drill mine. The first hole is always scary, but you just have to go slow at first until you are comfortable. The rest took less than 2 minutes to drill.
 
I had Matt drill mine also. he does an excellent job. I just was too scared of breaking the glass. I can't even look at plexi without it cracking/breaking.
 
Just drilled my first tanks. One was an oceanic sump. Not nearly as bad as you think. Just let the bit do the work and keep it cool.
