Bit for drilling glass

[michealprater]

Anyone close to me have a set of glass drill bits? Sunday Kraash and I are going to be doing some work on my sump, and I was hoping to drill it. But do not want to buy a set of bits I will never use again. Anyone willing to help me out?

TIA

i believe you can purchase a single diamond drill from www.mscdirect.com

I know, but I will only use it once. That was why I was asking my local club for a loaner. Thanks though!

What vspeck said.
I know I've got a couple around here somewhere.

Good question. Doh! I will check with Kraash to find out what I need. I thought they came in sets with several sizes. I apologize!

I just bought hole saws for the sizes I needed. I think I have one for 1.5" bulkheads and one for 2" bulkheads. If using Sch 80 I think you will need bigger saws.

Search the drilling thread, I just found mine. They are 45mm and 60mm. That thread will have what size bulkheads they are for.

25 bucks on the bay for a set of 7

Yeah, i would like to have it for Sunday. What size bulkhead should I use, I have a Dart Pump.

2 INCH

so would that 60mm work for a 2 inch bulkhead?

Nope, 2nd post he lists the sizes.
