I have been really busy getting ready for my wedding, and haven't had time to start back on my fish room. Well today I had some time and was going to drill my tank, I read as much as I could got the right drill bit had water runnign over the drill bith and the acrylic. Got the first hole drilled and 70% of the 2nd when I smelled something hot. I stopped drilling and checked the tank it was a little warm but pretty cool since it has water standing in it where I was drilling, same thing with the bit. Then I saw it smoke pouring out the drill itself.
If its not one thing its another, but I will get this room completed, the drill still works but who knows for how long. I am going to let it cool off and hope I can finish this last hole.
I got the room painted and have all the hardware I need, I can't wait to see my new water pump in action. A Cal Torpedo 4000 I should be able to get about 3200GPH with all the fittings and head height.
Hope everyone has been well, I have been running around like a mad man, working and going to school. I can tell you one thing getting married is a lot of work this is my second time, but moving my wife to be to Kansas City form Cali is alot of work in itself.
