    A question about Sterilite tubs
    Hi everyone I'm a new Ball owner and will be moving him to his new home.
    What is the best way to put holes into the tub. Thanks.

    I use a drill. You can use a soldering iron too.

    Although I have carefully drilled my holes, I believe that most people melt them in with a pencil type soldering iron. Drilling can crack the plastic

    Most people seem to prefer a soldering iron. You might want to use an old one that you don't want to use for soldering. A heated iron melts holes pretty quick without cracking like drilling will often do. You'll want to do it in a well-ventilated area, though, as the fumes can get pretty strong. :rolleye2:
