Just purchased an upgrade to my tank and would like to know if anyone knows any glass shops I can take my tank to for drilling. It is about 1/2 inch thick glass and I'd like 2, maybe 3 holes drilled in it. The tank is 37g.
Called early this morning and that seems is not his # anymore the guy said he'd try to get in touch with him and pass along my #. I haven't heard from him yet though. :?
when you do let me know! If your doing it this weekend maybe I can bring my tank to your place and we can have him drill our holes at the same time. Might be cheaper that way. I need two holes drilled. One roughly 1.5" and the other 1.25". My bulkhead sizes are 3/4" and 1"
Does anyone know any glass shops that may be willing to do this drilling? I dont want to do it myself. I would get really mad if I cracked something. I always tend to be too rough with things.
it is so easy to do it your self i just did one with the clubs bit, that doesnt have a center drill bit like the ones im used to using and it wasnt hard to get it started
I've seen it done with a dremel and diamond tip drill bits too which makes the cut perfect. I had a friend drill my 20g and we chipped the glass a little so I had to silicone the bulkhead in place so it wouldn't leak. I'd rather have a perfect cut so I don't have to worry about making a bulkhead permanent.
Hey Jaguar. I am thinking about just drilling my tank myself. If you want to do it together I can do your tank after I drill mine. Mine can be the "test" tank..... :lol:
