Use masking tape before you drill your holes, it makes the cut cleaner on both plastic and metal. Then use a dremel with a sander attachment to smooth out any ruff edges.
hi can u tell me that the tranperent glass which is used in pc is made of which material is that a fibre glass or plastic sheet of glass plz tell?????
@mognovox yes,you should either use the kind of drill he usesfor the 120mm, or if you dont have one, (in both cases its quite good) get speed to low and start drilling without forcing it, let the drill do the job and if you hear a crack, its too late :P
1) Try using a layer of some material clamped, or "sandwiched," below and above the thin metal you are cutting.
2) That hole saw (4 1/2) is clearly spinning too fast for the diameter of the cutting surface. The teeth gullets become clogged with hot plastic. The drill seems weak when it isn't. Lubrication and compressed air will help, too.
I don't see why not. Though you need to keep in mind that while Bill really knows his stuff, he was running the hole saw way too fast. (I think he already knows this by now). If you have a variable speed hand drill and if you run it at about 100 rpm you can prevent plastic from burning. You also need to keep the piece your cutting clamped down really well. Otherwise if the saw gets jammed into your piece you might get hurt.
you don't need to apply alot of pressure and are probably best off not to. I do alot of work with hole saws, you just need to let the wait of the drill do the cutting.
probably should change your drill press belt setting for more torque. I hate drilling 120mm fan holes into a steel case with a hand drill. I have a huge drill press but I cant get the case to fit on the drill press in any way.. :(
The good thing about invisible safety glasses is they're always on.

Do not drill to fast or Because the plastic could break,
"i tought it had more power" its just a security that if their is to many pressure it stops

Hi. Thanks.
1) Try using a layer of some material clamped, or "sandwiched," below and above the thin metal you are cutting.
2) That hole saw (4 1/2) is clearly spinning too fast for the diameter of the cutting surface. The teeth gullets become clogged with hot plastic. The drill seems weak when it isn't. Lubrication and compressed air will help, too.
3) How much are your eyes worth?

Great video I was looking for the name of this tool to make 2 holes on my Antec 900 case.
I am curious if you didn't apply a lot of pressure would it still work? I don't feel like warping my tray.

cutting a hole in plastic generates a lot of heat to the point of melting. he really needs to run the hole saw at around 200 rpm..

you want a slow speed when drilling plastic or acrylic. You can melt the surrounding area and make your cut ugly or scarred
