<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">I need to cut a couple of holes in a rather small electronic project box (This<br>
one: <a href="https://amz.run/3YjE" target="_blank">https://amz.run/3YjE</a> ) - but I'm not sure how to make nice "pretty" holes<br>
in this. It has both a plastic and metal covers, either one works for me, but<br>
I'll have wires through the plastic side. How does one cut a nice hole in a<br>
box like this? Ideally I'll have round holes for wiring and at least one small<br>
rectangle for a switch. See photo. Any suggestions appreciated!<br>
