- As for hole cutting, I had spent years with saber/jigsaw and file. I will never touch them again after acquiring an inexpensive 1/2" chuck drill press and a pair of metal hole cutters that mount to t

- Are these the kind with a cutter that slides on a bar? How thick can the aluminum be? What speed do you need to set the drill press at? Lots of questions! I've seen these, but I was afraid my drill p

- It is that kind of cutter. I don't remember the thickness limit. As for drill press speed, they say 400rpm. Mine bottoms out at 600rpm, but seems to work. I am extremely careful and patient with it
