Nibblers for metal work

[ytrehalf]

What brand and model nibblers do you guys recommend for metal work?

I'm looking for something that will be useful for the cutting the square hole needed to install a meter on a faceplate. I'm using the Hammond LA2a style chassis.

I don't have an air compressor, so air tools aren't an option quite yet.

Are there hand nibblers that can cut steel of that thickness?

Thanks

Use a drill press, jig saw with metal blades, and file.

Was curious if anyone used anything like this?
