Ok, my hole bit is inthe mail. Does anyone have any advice when drilling the hole. It will be in a 10 gallon, for the overflow. How far from the top should i go? Are the edges more prone to bust if im to close? Thanks in advance.

I would plot out your overflow and go as close to the center of the tank while still being in the over flow. I would say an inch down is plenty.

Other than keep it wet, anything else to watch for?

[jojo22]

Keep her wet and go very slow. Let the drill do the work for you.

10 g is thin go slow and consider clamping a piece of glass to the back to help prevent chipping when bit grinds through the glass

[cweber]

cool, thanks guys. hope fully after i get over the bumps i can take off on my project.
