tank drilling needed

[ceige]

Anyone know who can drill a tank for me? I need two 1 7/8” holes for drains in my glass AGA 75. I had someone lined up but the flood hit hard and he can’t come down for a while now. I am not in a huge rush but I don’t want to start my overflow project without the holes in place.

Thanks

high 70's low 80's, light winds (great for diving), and scattered showers.

Nice......I visited the islands a few years back. Maui, Oahu, and the big island. It was an awesome vacation and I definitely will be back. It was the first time I had ever dived in the US and I was used to the lax enforcement of the diving laws in the Carribean. That trip, and my limited diving as a "Discovery Diver" motivated me to get my diving cert.

It was a great trip, great memories, and great people we met there!

Well I am going to take advice from our visitor from warm Hawaii and buy a bit or two and drill my own tank and sump while I am at it.

I will post how things go...and have beer(s) when it is done!

Glass is not as difficult to cut as some think. I used my dremel tool to cut holes in my glass 30 gallon frag tank. Not difficult, just took a long time! With the correct blade/tools it is probably even easier.

Let us know how it goes.
