>>Yeah, a very inexpensive soldering gun from Radio Shack for example is the ONLY way to go in my opinion. It leaves nice smooth holes, and absolutely ZERO mess to clean up!

I think I spent $8 for my solder gun.(it was on sale from $12) I just spent a bit over an hour melting several hundred holes into six different tubs.I have melted thousands of holes with the one solder gun. Yeah, I had to do it in the doorway to avoid setting off the smoke alarm. But I didn't have any noise or mess to deal with. What I found about using a drill was that it was messy, rough edges, and if you didn't use a really nice new bit you splintered the tub. Just my opinion.
