How thick and how big of a hole
I have a bit that will do a schedual 80 1" bulkhead..
Bring it here and I'll drill it for you

i think its a 1" schedule 40. i have 2 of them.
i contacted advance and they wouldnt give a price or let me talk to a technician to ask him some questions. they were suppose to call back today but havent heard anything.
Adam i would but if for someone reason it broke that would suck. if a shop broke it i could maybe talk em into getting me a new sheet and fixing it for cheap.

Not likely to break the glass if he drills it for you. Use plumbers putty to build a dam, fill the area with water, and go to town.

Easy enough to do even Adam can do it:badgrin::badgrin:!!!! Besides no shop will replace the glass for you if they broke it during the drilling process.
