Stew819 on August 3, 2025 11:01 am Are there other weep holes? Does it raise up? If it does you could take out the top, but a snack hole in that plastic should be fine

Wise-Ad-7492 on August 3, 2025 11:19 am I did it. A 2mm hole. I hope that is okay according to the bible. Park Tool is a Christian company so hope that it is okay.
