steps of how i drilled while running

[exotic3412]

i just drilled my tank last night with everything in it last night. i lowed the water level to half way. took a piece of 3/4 pine and used the diamond bit, and drilled a hole through that. clamped wood and on inside of tank put a thin shim on inside and then tightened down. i drilled 2 holes in the top of the jig. i took a zip lock bag and bit a very small hole in the corner for a drip system. it took 25 min just cause it was my first time and i wanted a very fine cut, but it was worth it. If anyone might need to borrow the bit let me know 269-9069 -pat

There's a video somewhere on yourtube showing a guy drilling a partially filled tank. Good thing your side panel wasn't tempered or you'd have one major mess.
