Need help drilling 1/2" glass

[palileo]

Does anyone know how to drill glass tanks? In need of help drilling through 1/2" glass. I would like to do 3- 2.25" holes for bulkheads. The tank is not marked whether or not the bottom is tempered so to be safe I'd like to drill one of the sides.

Thanks in advance,
Ryan

Ryan,

I think the club just bought some diamond hole saw bits for cutting glass. You might want to check with the BOD to see if you can borrow it.

If we don't have it yet, I can help ya out.

I have the stuff to do it, but not as nice as the hole saw the club is purchasing.

Hey Steve, I'd like to take you up on it if the club does not own it yet... when are you available? I'll have the tank on Saturday but I'm sure I won't be ready to fill for at least a week.

Just PM me when you are ready (Provided the club does not have it.

Sat I think would be fine.
I might be out of town Mon-Fri and I don't do tank stuff on Sundays
