Drill My Holes
 
ok, on top of my rock building project, i have a question for more PAID favors



i need 20ish holes drilled into 9 tanks. all the tanks will be smaller than 10 gallons. are there any people able to do this? middletown plate is charging $30/1" hole. thats a "no can do"


any help? anybody?

erickrm 01/03/2008 02:57 PM

I will ask my friend to see if he has time :) he has drilled plenty of tanks. Will let ya know...

craiglanda 01/03/2008 03:02 PM

Yeah are you sure it isnt tempered glass?

kydsexy 01/03/2008 03:06 PM

theyre gonna be perfecto 2.5 and 10 gallon tanks

craiglanda 01/03/2008 03:09 PM

i think perfecto tanks are all tempered. That makes it pretty hard to drill (if not impossible) im not sure if just the bottom pannels are tempered or all the pannels.

You can contact Perfecto by email, and ask them if drilling is an option on the particular tanks you have.

kydsexy 01/03/2008 03:51 PM

perfecto doesn't temper ANY tanks up to the 27 Hex :D so those are cool to do. any reason you thought that craiglanda? let me know. any bad experiences?

i think PL-Reef is gonna help me out :D i think we should use our real names lol.

Hi everybody, Im Jay :D

DegenR8, i love that name, is it degenerate? or do you own the new audi R8 and you name is degen? haha, but seriously

craiglanda 01/03/2008 03:54 PM

Just wanted you to make sure it wasnt tempered before attempting to drill it and then see a post with you saying you found out the hard way. Just looking out!

DgenR8 01/03/2008 03:55 PM

It has come back to bite me in the butt a few times, but you were right the first time. For the record, I picked DgenR8 long before I was invited to join the staff here, and now it's way too late to change it.

kydsexy 01/03/2008 04:01 PM

thanks for looking otu for me fellas. im jealous of degenR8, i could never think of a name like that!!! but i do love those games thins

Sorry I didn't know I could not post a link - so I deleted it - look up the dremel tank drilling technique

I have spoken to many friends who have drilled hundreds of tanks this way and I plan on trying it myself - hope this helps

The only thing is that the thinner the glass the more of a pain in the *** .
