Default Do you need your tank drilled? (Okanagan)

I can't find any cheap diamond hole saw bits to drill my tanks. If I find enough people who are wanting their tanks drilled, I will buy the contractor grade expensive-as-all-heck bits, and I will come and drill your tank for you. Or you can do it, while I watch. I will supply the drill, the bits, and the ring that holds the water for the bit.

As with companies that drill tanks, the risk of your tank breaking is yours, not mine.

Anyone interested?

Weird...I can get the first page, but as soon as I click on any link on the site I get a page that says:

E:\home\dancole\website\cgi-bin\SoftCart.exe Internal Exception Error c0000005

I found that the "tool place" in Kamloops had pretty good bits and a good range of sizes for about $20 each (for the 2.5" I bought). As for the rig.... I just drilled a piece of acrylic sheet first, then clamped on the glass to hold the bit in place for the first while.

A real good drill is the only needed expensive part. You need one with very fine control over the speed. You can always have your cheap bit re-coated if you actually wear it out. But you have to drill a lot for that to happen.

I thought I tried The Tool Place, but now that I think of it, they were closed when I went there. I'll have to try again. Good idea with te acrylic!! Ya, I have a good Makita drill.
