Hi Jack

I would use a forstner bit and go very slow.  Make sure you support the back
side of the tank very well as they can be brittle.

Subject: [Killietalk] drilling plastic tanks

Can someone advise me of a good drill bit for drilling plastic tanks -
Critter Keepers, Penplex, etc?  I would like to know the appropriate bit
and the appropriate drill speed.  Thanks, Jack Heller
