Just wanted to share a small add on for your skimmer should it have a drain. Add on a rubber tubing connected to a 90 degree connector and a valve. Makes emptying the skimmer cup so much easier. Just turn the valve over a pail cleaning ur skimmer is a breeze.

Any suggestion if it's a octo classic series? Vertical type. I've been thinking of drilling from the side but kinda not as efficient as the one you did.

Last time I drilled my bubble magus skimmer for an overflow. Have to be very slow and careful not to crack the plastic. But it might spoil the sleek look of ur skimmer
