JUst got a good deal on a track and was wondering how to efficiently punch out the windows so my anti-ratchets drivers with roll through smoothly.
Thanks! -Joe

I used a utility knife but it takes a while. I have seen a piece of steel tubing with the end ground sharp used. This worked real well especially when heated, but it takes a while to make the tool. Someone actually sells this tool, but not real cheap.
Others have used a hole saw which only works if you do not plan to clip it.
If you only have one to do the utility knife works fine, just be careful to not cut too far especially if your fingers are in the way. You can take a torch and melt the fibers if you want.

Alright that's kinda like what Ive been hearing is the way to go (utility knife) and melt fibers so it doesn't want to tear. Thanks for the backup!

dremmel, with a cutting bit, the ones that look like a drillbit works pretty good. Just jack up the rear get a comfy chair and your favorite beverage. (it takes a while so make sure you have enough, wouldnt want to get dehydrated) sit back and have at er.
oh and that smell? you get used to it after a while but a fan pointed to a semi open door seems to help.
