![]() Anyone have a 1.5" glass cutting hole saw bit in Victoria? I know I can get one for around $22 but I don't exactly plan on drilling a lot of tanks. So if someone in Victoria has one they'd be willing to rent me to cut a few holes in 1/4" glass I'd really appreciate it.
I called H20 Aquarium and they wanted $50 to drill the hole so I've decided to do it myself. I recently had some baffles cut and drilled by a local glass company and they created some pretty nasty chip-out when they drilled the holes so I figure I can't be any worse ![]()

![]() Canadian - I may need a 1.5 hole drilled for my sump. I'll throw in the $$$'s to differ the costs. Practice on your tank first..... K

![]() Tyler I think I'll just get one from Island Saw and Tool and practice on a couple pieces of 1/4" glass. It doesn't look too difficult and I have a drill with an adjustable clutch so I expect it to go without a hitch. I'll pick one up on Saturday and give it a go over the weekend.

![]() Thanks for the offer Steve. I have a couple pieces of 9 x 12 1/4" glass kicking around to test things on but if it turns out I'm a total spazz I might end up having to take you up on that offer

![]() ok, don't wait to long as I am cleaning out the garage and hauling things to the dump, oh I checked, I have 1 chunk, about 12 x 24 and it has a 1" notch out of one edge where I was practicing notching for an external overflow.
