You should be able to find a "dit" at any hardware store. Be sure to buy a "dit" that is 1/8 to 1/4" bigger than the bulkhead.

Drilled a couple of tanks now using diamond bits fr Princess Auto and a dremel. Takes 15-20 minutes for a hole big enough for a 1" bulk head.

I just drilled a hole for a 3/4 inch bulkhead in the back of a Nanocube 6. I used a Dremel diamond bit that I bought at Revy for $15. I built a Plasticine dam filled with mineral oil to keep the bit cool. It took under half an hour including setup time and was a lot easier than I thought it would be.
