One thing you must remember when drilling a hole in glass......you are not actually drilling, you are grinding a hole. Therefore you put NO PRESSURE on the drill. Just the weight of the drill will be enough.

Also, keep the drill bit wet at all times. The heat generated will be enough to crack the glass. The water will take care of that issue.

Like I said, I can walk you through it very easily, just can't do it for you.

Tony, you need to have your bulkheads before you have it drilled. I've got a few 1" bulkheads on my tank that required different size holes drilled for them. Better to have the bulkheads and trace the gasket on the glass for them to drill the right size and in the right spot.
