Where to get tank drilled?

[Delphinus]

If you order from a store they will be able to set you up with any drilling you need on the tank, all you'll do is take delivery of the tank.

If you end up buying used and need to have the tank drilled after the fact, again, again the stores might be able to help you out, but I could help you out for 5/8" holes (float valve), 1.75" holes (1" bulkhead) and 65mm holes (1.5" bulkhead). Or you can order the drill bits off ebay or mops.ca, generally around $20 per drill bit but you should also have a cutting oil and a little doo-dad to keep the cutting oil in place while you drill.

Thanks for the offer. I may take you up on that
Having a hard time finding anywhere that isn't a 2 month wait or not taking orders at all. Going to see if i get a response off here if not i will have to get an undrilled tank and try my hand at it. Never done anything like this so hopefully i will not shatter it in the making. That would tick the wife off i am sure

OH yes breaking a tank does tick the wife off. Ticked me off more.
Have you tried talking to Wayne at Riverfront? I know they cut and drill glass. I am in talks with him about cutting and drilling a new bottom for the 92G corner I just broke
