TIP: If you place duct tape or painters tape inside of the tank where you are drilling the hole, it will do two things. 1) prevent the cut out from falling once you’re done drilling...and....2) It will significantly reduce the inside edges of the hole from chipping and flaking. 😉👍

Thanks that's an awesome tip I will for sure use!

@trueblu8 Год назад

That's the tip we needed to hear. Thank you!

@jlathem56 5 лет назад

Great video Jason. I have been looking around and have watched many videos on drilling tanks but this one has a lot of insight that the others I watched didn’t have. I actually feel more confident about drilling my tanks now. Thanks!

@JadrenAquatics 5 лет назад

Your very welcome!

Good video. Thanks!

@adam4liberty Год назад

Hey, thumbs up Jason. I’ve drilled a ton of glass and granite and porcelain. You’ve explained it as simple as possible to the masses. A sponge is a great way to apply water as well. Drilling tanks is the game changer in any aquatic system. Separates the average from the obsession. Thanks again. And you can drill slow if you don’t know what you’re doing. Break a ten gallon or two.

Very good explanation ! Thx. for sharing

@ferrari_guy3570 3 года назад

Awesome man!

@andysfishden6506 5 лет назад

Something I was told by a tank manufacturer about bulkhead placement is to have the hole from any side at least as many inches the hole is. So if your hole is 1.5" diameter, the hole needs to be at least 1.5" away from any edge. This will also help so that when you put the bulkhead in the lip or nut won't be on a silicone seam or on ot right up to the trim.

@JadrenAquatics 5 лет назад

Yes I've drilled mine to close before and could not screw on the fitting lol

@marktimmer2212 2 года назад

@juliescesar 5 лет назад

Well explained sir

@MrScienceGeek 5 лет назад

thank you for sharing your tips and experience. Im looking into doing this soon on my tanks, thinking about ditching the pvc overflow setup I have now, one lost its siphon, thats one too many!

@moogiesretirementhaven2265 5 лет назад

Thanks for sharing the technique! Could you show the tanks set up that you drilled the holes for and the complete system? Again thanks!

@JadrenAquatics 5 лет назад

Yes once I get a little farther along I'll show how all of it works thanks

@seanootd3406 5 лет назад

Another great video mate lol i tried doing this when I was set up my shell dweller rack but i practiced on a few 10 gallons so i dont mess up the 40 breeders lol yeah i gave up just added pond pumps for easy water changes instead

@JadrenAquatics 5 лет назад

Lol that's how I felt when I tried to cut slate

@seanootd3406 5 лет назад

@@JadrenAquatics lol yeah seemed like it was the same level of frustration

@FancyTailAquatics 5 лет назад

Good stuff! I have been so scared to even try it.

@JadrenAquatics 5 лет назад

You really need one to practice on to realize how easy it is

How can i cut a rectangle in glass ?

@kentsfish9761 5 лет назад

I always want to but I am scared to do it thanks for the info I will try it now. Thanks again

@JadrenAquatics 5 лет назад

Good luck it's really way easier than you think

@bigbuck6217 5 лет назад

Great info, thanks for linking the product. You said you silicone the bulkheads, do you leave the washer on or off when you do that?

@JadrenAquatics 5 лет назад

I always leave the washer on thanks

@jeffstrains4014 5 месяцев назад

Is the glass tempered?

@Spacenow869 Год назад

Drill from inside out You will be able to flood the are with water so I will be constantly lubricating the cut. It preserve the bit. Set the tank on Styrofoam so when you get to the end of the cut you just do not blast roufg and cut does not chip as easy. On some larger tank I actually glue 2x2 " plate to reinforce the area and prevent the glass from breaking

@forturetools 3 года назад

The diamond drill bit is not sintered, not electroplated, more like a brazed bond, am I right?

@dave6589 4 года назад

I was wondering if you can drill a hole like this in the bottom of the tank?

@robyns2946 3 года назад

Can you tell me what kind of drill you prefer to use for glass cutting and why?

@JadrenAquatics 3 года назад

Any type of plug in is what I use. Battery power will slow down when running for long periods of time

@forturetools 3 года назад

With a little angle at the beginning seems easier to drill

@pattonwille3005 5 лет назад

@JadrenAquatics 5 лет назад

I had it custom made. Thanks!

@ydeardorff 3 года назад

How to do it sideways? My tank is 1000lbs

@JadrenAquatics 3 года назад

The bigger the tank the easier it should be because the glass is so thick

@strawman9410 2 года назад

Instead of keep putting water on put a wet sponge inside the diamond drill

@JadrenAquatics 2 года назад

Thanks great idea

@stevedodd7883 3 года назад

is it possible to drill a 6 inch hole in a tank, I want to put two four foot tanks end to end to make eight foot, then cut a 6 inch diameter hole so the fish can swim from one tank to the other, I will join the tanks together with a bulkhead or with silicone. can you get a six inch cutter

@JadrenAquatics 3 года назад

I'm sure there is a hole saw that size somewhere probably cost $200 with that much diamond powder on it lol

@reelthing4u 5 лет назад

what are you trying to say.?that i can only afford 19 gallon tank.i see how you are.i thought you was better than,lol just kidding.nice job

@stevesaquatopia8291 5 лет назад

I want to drill my tanks so badly but I'm too afraid I'll break my tanks. They are large tanks so breaking them would be rough.

@funnyguy55able 4 года назад

I was surprised that there is no mention of tempered glass. Someone watching this that is not aware will destroy their tank. Great step by step otherwise.
