I am making a video on my 75 gallon build, much of it made in house, and here is the first video - drilling the aquarium!



Good video. I have cut many many many holes in glass just out of curiosity how come it took 30 min? I go extremely slow on my cuts and 4-5 minutes max is usually all it takes to get mine cut and I use very little to no additional pressure on top of the weight of the drill.
 
I was probably overly cautious. Those tanks aren't free, and I didn't want a second failure to be bacause I was in a hurry. That was my first, second and third attempt, so I am a long way from experienced in glass drilling.

I mean your hole looks awesome so good job.
