It blunts drill bits like they are going out of fashion...but apart from that piece of cake!
 
Oh and measure at least 3 times!

dead easy just scary! lol

use a dremel to get it spot on and put down loadsa maskin tape to stop it fraying:mmmm

heres a pic of mine that i used a dremel on and drilled the holes with cobalt drills at very slow speed, oh and i glued all the edges i cut and drilled to stop any moisture gettin in the weave

THE POLICE NEVER THINK ITS AS FUNNY AS YOU DO!:Thumbs-up
