Drill 2 holes in it, one at each end of the rectangle. Then use a dremel with a fiberglass reinforced cut off disk to cut out the rectangle in between the 2 holes.

no need to drill holes if your using a cutoff wheel dremel also has a titanium cutting bit.. it looks like a small bit for a mill..cost about $10 but works great.. i forget the actual name of it |

Yes you do, if your cutting a long skinny rectangle with a large cut off wheel. You can make the long horizontal cuts easily with a cutoff wheel, but how do you make the short vertical cuts? Last edited by AdamF; 04-22-2005 at 10:05 PM. | |

Just take 4" grinder to it, you'll "Git ur dun" in no time! And make sure you use Saftey glasses or close your eyes |
