Anybody able to drill a tank?

[brotherd]

.5 to 1.0 inch is pretty small.Is that the size of the bulkhead or the desired hole size?My smallest bit will yield a whole just under 1.250" We are talking about a glass tank right?

Talking bulkhead yep. Size I am not really fussy as the drip will be slow. And yes we are talking glass.

I can do it but not till next weekend if that works for you. pm me your addy/phone # if you want and we can work out the details.

Still looking. To clarify I need this tank drilled on the side!

I could maybe do you a 5/8" which is good for installing float valves. Or lend you the bit and you can do it yourself (it's not hard, we can go over the how-to's if you wanted to borrow it). LMK

Thats awesome! I'm going to get some today.

Does anyone know off hand the hole sizes for different bulkheads? 3/4", 1", 1.5", 2" bulkheads etc.
