Re: Drilling, already painted panels
[ QUOTE ]
My choice #1...Blair hole saw, drill a pilot hole the size of the arbor....DO NOT rely on a spring loaded arbor pin  #2 Use a step drill as already mentioned, again drill a pilot hole, about 1/8" first. Another good choice would be a greenlee hole punch if you could borrow one, and if you have back side clearance. worst choice in sheetmetal is a twist drill And tape the area, as mentioned...and don't be scared  just Git er done  Mike [/ QUOTE ]  Rich

Thanks guys, just looked at Greenlee Hole Punches online those things look pretty sweet. I think I may order a few. Thanks again Todd [/ QUOTE ] If you are looking for greenlee punches, look on ebay. Sets often sell for cheap. Even if they are well used, you only need to wring a few holes out of them.
