Should I just use a hole saw, which

Golly gee. How 'bout using a hole saw bit to cut a circle with a
drill? You must be from Canada, eh?

Is there a "saw" that cuts circles, please let me know.


I've cut circles on my table saw many, many times.


In metal? Maybe I could learn something.


I cut aluminum on my table saw all the time and the trick to cut
circles is to have a pivot point (on a sled) and rough it in before
you start finishing the circle.
