drill holes in tubing

I spent the day getting a used greenhouse home. I'm plumb wore out right
now. So, I'm a dreaming on the re-construction. I'll build it on skids so
I
can drag it to new ground every year.
To do this, I'll need two runs of square tubing on each side. Fifty spots
on
each side to drill a 1.9" hole for a total of 200 holes. Then weld a
vertical sleeve at each hole. The base on the sides will look just like a
ladder laying down.
Anyway, what would you use to drill 200 1.9" holes in 2-1/4 (if made) or
2-1/2 square tubing. I have a radial arm drill press. I know I'd go
through
SEVERAL 1-7/8" regular hole saws. There must be a better option.

How about a trammel cutter? With that you could dial it to the exact
diameter you want, they are cheap and you can re-sharpen them.
Also, how did you wind up pulling all of the tubes?

About the time I had mastered getting the toothpaste back in the tube, then
they come up with this striped stuff.
