There we have a basic difference in philosophjy. I don't think that
something not being visible is a reason not to do it neatly.


With a proper 'keyhole' saw designed for this job - the sheds sell them
for pennies - it's an easy job to make a pretty decent hole. Assuming you
can draw a neat pencil line to follow.

I use this saw quite a bit - pretty well anywhere where you have to cut a
hole in plasterboard. And sometimes in wood.
