I would like to reef drill my tank. just wondering if anyone knows of a way I could borrow, or rent a hole saw, as I will only be using it once. breaking the aquarium is a risk I am willing to take as I have no livestock at the moment.
thanks everyone.
Get some modeling clay from the dollar store and roll it out into a snake and create a dam around where you will be drilling the hole. Fill it with water then drill the hole.
The modeling clay trick sounds like a good idea. possibly better than just puyring water on it.
It looks like 45mm is the size to go with. that is just a little under 2", so I am sure 2" will work.
I did find some cheap ones on amazon, not sure if they are any good though.
use a drill press if possible with steady light pressure let the diamonds do the cutting.
I like to add a little dish soap to make the water stay<G>
I have a stand to hold a regular electic drill if you need one.
