I've gotten pretty handy with a drill, center punch, and holesaws for doing standard knobs, connectors, etc.
But what about for large rectangular holes, such as for module racking, sumthing, etc? Is a jigsaw the appropriate tool? What about blade type? Looking for a solution on the cheaper side, as I don't do this kind of work too often.
I've literally burned through two Dremels trying to cut a hole for two PM1000 modules in a Par Metal aluminum faceplate (luckily Home Depot takes them back!). It's obviously the wrong tool for the job. Takes way too long, then smokes and dies!
Help,
Tim
