Diamond hole saw Edmonton

[sonymdcdvcd]

Does anyone know where in Edmonton I can find a diamond hole saw bit? I'm having trouble finding a place to drill on the side of my 30Gal as Big Al's HAVE to drill from the inside and the depth of the tank doesn't fit their drill.... and all the other glass shops charge at least $30/hole....

Check out EBay

Whoa! $30 a hole!!! Have you called all the glass shops in your area? I had my tank drilled here at a local glass shop for $5 a hole for 2" holes. Im obviously WAY too far but I would think somewhere there would do it cheaper!

ya unfortunately they charge minimum shop labor cost which is around $30

How big and how thick?

I've done a couple for 1" bulkheads with a Dremel and cheap diamond bits from PA, taking my time done in ~20 minutes.

just for a 1.5in bulkhead or so for an external pump.... the thickness of the glass is only 1/4 since it's a 30gal tank.
