drilling a tank or two

[bigbaddad]

I just got two new tanks a 29 gallon and a 33 gallon i went and bought a 29 gallon while i was moving after i got it in the new house i found a 33 gallon with a stand in the back alley.

Then i broke my 20 gallon so i ripped the bulkheads out my internet connection may be down for a few days while i am going along.

I can try to take lots of pics and specify what i am using.

Please use some punctuation!

I was trying to figure out how you ripped the bulkheads out my internet connection.

Thanks, waiting for your updates,

Sorry about the bad punctuation. I ripped out some bulkheads out of my 20 gallon tank that i broke (bulkheads are expensive around here about 40.00 a set).

Setting up the tanks is part of my unpacking proccess (so much to do so little time)

Holly Price gouging batman, I use a male and female connector Plus rubber seal 4 bucks and if I am worried about leaks a touch of silcon. I could make 10 bulkheads for that price.

there is one thing i did different from the sticky i used a thin piece of plywood for a jig once i etched a thin line to sink in the bit i removed the jig all the while running a garden hose while i was drilling.

I used a high speed drill without a problem.
