That's only for cutting wood and plastic. You may get away with cutting thin metal, but I wouldn't risk it myself.

This is the sort of thing you need, holecutter and arbour: [url=http://www.screwfix.com/app/sfd/cat/cat.jsp?cId=100220&ts=73289[/url]]Link
Unfortunately, nearest size there is 127mm.

I got my 80mm holecutter from an Electrical wholesalers.[/url]

And I'm afraid that one is only suitable for cutting wood and plasterboard.

That’s the reason I stated Tool-hire the sales/hire staff will know what you need hopefully

I use hole cutters a fair bit at work but biggest size I have for work is 60mm.

Even cutting an 80mm hole in a computer case is quite a task.

The metal has to be held fiirmly in position and you need a slow drill speed and cutting oil.
