Need a Tank Driller

[foundnemo11]

I received all of my parts from glass-holes including the diamond bits. Now I just need to get the plumbing setup and drill the tank. It is setup now so I have to be quick with it while all of my livestock will me in containers.

I would appreciate if someone could help me out. If anyone is experienced with drilling tanks it would help me out a lot. I dont have too much patience and I dont want to drill my first hole ever on my tank that I need for the livestock i have.

Please let me know I am pretty much free during the nights. This week will be kind of crazy due to a wedding but let me know if you can. Also please tell me how much you would want for it.

Thanks
Adam

Go buy some small glass panes and practice first so you know how it feels and acts. DONT let your first hole be an important hole

^ took the words out of my mouth lol
I drilled a scrap piece of glass I had the other day and it was the 1st piece of glass I ever drilled. It was super easy. All it takes is 1 try to get the hang of it

 

[foundnemo11]

Yeah that's a good idea on practicing

And thanks St. james

Ok i planned on laying it on the front and drilling down. I was gonna constantly poor water on it from a hose while drilling into a volcano formed from plummers putty. Then drill. Do i drill fast or slow?

 

[sreefs]

Put duct tape on the inside under where the hole is, helps to keep from getting chips. Start slow, then medium speed then when almost through go slow. I am sure you know don't put pressure on the drill.
