Hi


I have to cut tap holes in a new acrylic bath and I'm wondering what
the best tool would be. I was planning to use a holesaw but I'm
worried about the acrylic cracking/splitting or generally getting
chewed up. Are acrylic baths easy to cut?


I did it a few months ago, just used a bog standard hole drill from one of
those packs of 300 drill bit type things, I drilled a pilot hole first to
get the distance exact.

Your best bet it to practice loads of times on the old bath,


What if it's cast iron?
