silent drilling a hole in the plastic container

submitted by vraud to justice 12 monthsMay 9, 2023 12:36:45 ago (+1/-1)     (justice)

White smart heads, long story short. I need to drill a hole in the plastic container(rotomoulding) full of liquid. It must be done quiet enough to be barely audible at night.
A hole about diameter of man’s middle finger will be enough, but bigger won’t hurt.
Any good ideas?

Heat up the tip of a screwdriver for an inaudible penetration of plastic; then wiggle for size of hole. Keep in mind that temporary smell can be an issue, especially indoors.

yeah good idea, but forgot to mention that this „liquid” is diesel, don’t want to become a torch.
and it’s outdoor
how would you deal with it in such case?

Have you ever tried igniting diesel in ambient conditions?

And wtf does this have to do with "justice"?

Can you just drill it now and Putin a plug?

Two options I can think of..

1. Hand crank drill
2. Screw driver and self tapping screw, once the hole is drilled just pry it larger with the screw driver.
