As Alex says, it'll do the job nicely. Keep the drill speed low is my tip. Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

i always found that 1.5" gave me pleasure upto you though, try marking up both sizes and see which you prefer is that what your having in you rear…valance, thinking of copy that (always have good results from 12", but thats maybe a tad big in the rear

A stepper drill can work a treat to take out smaller to medium sized holes.

I'd forgotton about stepper drills. I've got shit-loads in the garage. They give a much neater finnish than a holesaw, but are lomited on size. Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

Can anybody recommend a descent set of hole cutters? I've got loads of cheep ones, but they don't seem to do a very neat job of it, even on slow drill speeds. On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:

I'm looking at drilling steel already in the car, the parcel shelf for example. So It needs to be hole saws really. Was really looking for a brand that people had used with good success.

A holesaw makes a neat cut through gel coat just be gentle. |
