![]() I need to drill for 2 2" bulkheads in my sump.
It currently has a 1 1/2" bulkhead where i need to have a 2" ![]() I may also have to drill in place so the glass will be verticle.... Im thinking ill use the putty with a half cut tupperware dish so its half submerged and I can pour water over the top aswell..... anyone ever tried this method? or have a better one lol It always takes me a few beer to try and punch through glass..... this job will be worse on the nerves for sure |

![]() I've never drilled over an existing hole but using a 2x4 with a hole cut just bigger than the OD of the diamond bit helps me keep the bit from wandering. Do you have a piece of glass you could drill your holes sizes in as a test run.

![]() +1 on the above, you need to center the bigger hole over the small hole and clamp it good. Lots of water & take your time it is a breeze.
