Ah, thanks Bill, I hadn't considered using a bimetal hole saw.

Do you think my 1/4 horsepower drill press has enough horse to turn a one
inch bimetal hole saw through 1/8" mild steel?

Thanks again,

Jon

Thats not a bad suggestion at all.. And you MIGHT have enough power.
Maybe. Could be.

Dont have a hand drill??

"First Law of Leftist Debate
The more you present a leftist with factual evidence
that is counter to his preconceived world view and the
more difficult it becomes for him to refute it without
losing face the chance of him calling you a racist, bigot,
homophobe approaches infinity.

This is despite the thread you are in having not mentioned
race or sexual preference in any way that is relevant to
the subject." Grey Ghost
