Glass Tank drilling

[pyranha]

Anyone out here have a glass drill? Ryan? You still alive?
I need to drill the 180 I recently aquired. If anyone wants to help....let me know.
Sooner is better of course ;-)

Ramon might have the bit. I helped him drill (break) his 75 a while back.

I'm not too sure you wanna mix beer with drilling glass

Jason I did 5 holes in my tank I'd be glad to help out. You can do the drilling and I'll show you how.

Doody: beer was meant for afterwards :) and for SDFG a rhetorical statement

[doody]

In that case, drink on!

Jason,
how did you break the tank? Do you think the bit is getting dull? Did you try drinking beer?:D

2" drain would be sweet, I think I would go for that one...

I thought beer was part of the instructions when drilling glass.

I have the special pink coolant used for glass drilling if you need some. Makes life a little easier.

When Todd drilled my tank he also used a coolant. It was just like the stuff we mixed with water to use in the band saw.

that's the one I used it's for 1.5 inch holes. If you end up using it I may have some bulkheads to go with the holes.

1.5 hole or is it for a 1.5 bulkhead?

[szwab]

oops meant 1.5 inch bulkheads
