Hole Cutting

[DFW40 10+ year member]

Are there any hand tools that can cut out a circle, (for the speaker?) Or is there any way to do it with a drill?
I am having a hard time finding someone with a jigsaw...

You have to have some sort of saws around to cut plywood for the hurricane season.

WE cut ours with a circular saw....which really sucks at making any kind of turns...

Would THIS work?

In theroy, but I'd rather use a jigsaw... much better control with the up-down motion than a rotating motion.

Yeah, just don't count on it lasting long... look at yard sales for jigsaws...

Well I purchased a pretty good one from Lowes for like $120 and it was worth every penny. With a new blade it cuts about as fast as you would want.

I am not looking on spending that much money... This is probably the only time I will use this tool, other than making another sub box in the future.

for him to cut out some simple circles how much should he have to pay.
Looking at what the guys said, he obviously hasnt needed one til this point, so i would think he would want something cheap to cut the hole, being that he probably wont use it much.

What's your point. I was simply telling him the quality of their items //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

My point is simply that you made it seem like he shouldnt buy anything from there, when he clearly looks like someone who would only need the tool for this job. When someone hears that something isnt quality they just automatically count it out more times then not. All i was stating here was that it would be good for him as im sure the others who mentioned it though as well.
