    Water test complete. No leaks except for a small one in the bottom corner of the return baffle. No biggy but of course I'll patch it

    Leak sealed! My son picked up a couple of drills so once I work up the courage I'll Git-Er-Done! I'm going to have him place the tank in my tub/shower with the holes to be drilled facing me. I'll use the handy shower head as my continuous water supply. Then drill away and pray!! Lol

    Looks good Jamie. Remember when drilling holes,slow and easy!! Let the bit do the work. Hardest part is not pushing. The weight of the drill is more then enough. Good luck

    Besides if others can do it so can you!

    Battery powered drill. I'll be removing the shower head itself, so it's more like a hose

    If you set the clutch to 1, it makes drilling MUCH safer. If the bit binds, the clutch spins, eliminating the torque that would otherwise break the panel.

    Thank you for that. One of the drills is a B&D. Should I run it on #1
