My wife wants me to make some sconce lights out of sheets of sheet metal.
I want to punch squares or rectangles to get a stairstep southwest Indian

In terms of getting shaped holes, why not oxyacetylene? The
spark-making is fun, and the edges get a nice rounding.
Some metal coloration should be expected (can be integrated
into the design, or painted over).
