Does Korry or anyone else make a knockout tool for the Korry 318?

Panels are normally machined, but you could buy a rectangular sheet metal punch & die set - not cheap.

You would need a 15/16 x 7/16 unit

Drill a round hole and expand it to a rectangle or square with a nibbling tool?

Might take you a while...

I guess I could take it to the shop and have the opening machined...
