I have a Vacuum desiccator.
But it seems no one has ever opened up its port.
It has a nice threaded cap and fitting.
But the glass was blown and no hole made to allow for a port and valve to be fitted.
I am unsure whether to use a diamond drill to try and grind an opening which would leave some stress points.
Or whether to use an Oxigen torch to melt a small hole.
How would you approach such a job?
