Tank Drilled in EDM?
 

Hi guys, is there anyone willing to either lend me a drill bit to drill my tank or come over and do it for me for a fee?

Looking to install one or two bulkheads in a 10 gal in the back panel on each side near the top corner.

Would it be cheaper to get a bit somewhere in town and install it myself? Wouldnt be afraid of some diy.

thanks

You can get glass bits off Ebay very cheap and they are good quality. That is where I got mine an have drilled dozens of holes with them so far.

Really cheap at Home Hardware ($20ish) and from what I've heard, Princess Auto...

I am sure there are other places but rona has bits in their eco section i think they are 20-40 dollars depending on size and they have kind of a core fee if you return them they are cheaper when you get replacements. They work good for the few holes I have drilled. You can get cheaper ones online too at like mops.ca, and the lfs/sponsors might have some.

I got 8 bits ranging for 3/4" - 2" bulkheads, 2 of each size for $60 off Ebay.

Maybe I'm too late but I went to Tile Town picked up a 2" diamond bit for cutting ceramic tile really cheap.

really? thanks, good to know, but I already ordered the bit from mops.ca and also a bunch of plumbing parts as well.
