  1. In hard plastic...?

    drainage thing , so would like a perfect circle , not my shaking hand with a blunt stanley knife...:D

    A soldering iron looks a bit messy...

    I have ceramic cutters will they work?

    What size? To get condensate pipe into a down pipe before I've heated up 22mm copper pipe and melted through the pipe :)

    As long as it's sharp enough most wood cutting things should work (I hope) :)

    Hole saw .
    A soldering iron using a bit of wire with a loop round the bit, going to a pin in the centre of the hole to hold a constant radius.
    A load of small holes in a circle and a Stanley knife.
    Buy one with a hole in the right place.

  9. I've got a box of holes in the garage what size do you want ?
     
  10. All mine are on the floor of the workshop having dropped off the bay & the bug, they were surrounded with rust!?!
     
  11. mine are completely rust free ideal for all those jobs when you need a hole

    I thought that circular saws were used for this.
