That would be the way to do it...the way I would do it...although, some people just cut and go...

I think Frizzle has some pics.

i have some 1/4 wall 4 inch I.D. pipe that im going to use should fit perfect
would it be easier to do if i cut out the rivets and pulled the crossmember out and did it on the bench

Cut a hole in a piece of plywood you can clamp to the area your wanting to cut to keep the saw centered. and from wondering.

Re: ''Project '64 SYT Super Yenko Truck"

Re: ''Project '64 SYT Super Yenko Truck"

It is all about how much pressure you put on the drill. ;)

Re: ''Project '64 SYT Super Yenko Truck"
 
so true it also helps when the hole saw is sharp but after the first hole was cutting the second one was a *****
maybe i was using a wood holesaw
i cant tell the difference
