Where did you get your hole saw? Sounds like a stupid question but the Lowes/Home Depot ones aren't deep enough to go all the way through without bottoming out.

Thanks,

Owen

you can get them from any machinist supply shop.

Cool, I'll check them out, I order from McMaster all the time. Thanks!

Mine wasnt deep enough either. So i just took a sawblade and cut the aluminumcasting in the waterarea.

Pretty easy

Hmm, good idea...I'll remember that in case I don't find anything. Actually, my second to last option would be to buy another saw, cut the end out of it, and weld it to the first one!

Well, I can't find a deep enough hole saw...



Kim, did you cut that aluminum circle/post thing and then continue drilling?

Thanks

I cut it in two stages.

Stage one, i cut through the outer housing



Then used a hack saw to cut the aluminum in between the two "layers"



Stage two, cut the inner housing

Cool, if I can just get through that outer cylindrical shaped thing, I should be able to continue drilling. I just wish I could find a taller saw!
