![]() ah yeah good call freezetyle, its been awhile but i have been f'd around by ups in the past..
thats good to here grizz, I was wondering actually how many holes your able to drill before wanting to replace a diamond hole saw. Ive heard even a few will dull the cutting edge, but i suppose it all depends on how deep or thick the glass is, along with how much lubricant your using.

![]() Rona carries diamond hole saws (despite what the guy on the phone when i called to ask....) an in house brand called 'eco'. I randomly stumbled across these while looking at mitre saws in the hardware section. They have small hole saws all the way up to what i needed, 2.5"
Figured id let everyone know. Reasonable price too, 36.99 for the 2.5

![]() I saw some hole saws at rona the other day. They were the bits you exchange when they are dull. I only saw bits up to 1 inch though. The rona out here is small maybe a bigger store might have bigger sizes.

![]() Princess Auto is probably the best place to get them or ebay
It's cheaper there and works ok. I cut through 2 holes in about 1/2 inch of glass 1st hole was 1 1/2 hours, although my second hole almost took 3 hours to drill it was painful lol but that's almost 1 inch of glass total for one hole saw |

![]() I picked mine up at Rona which has a exchange program. I drilled 4 holes and returned it for a new one for twenty bucks
