I'm beginning to look at doing some serious cable management in my next case and that means I'm going to be cutting some holes in the case for routing cables under the MOBO and to the drives.
I'm curious to hear how some of the pros on this forum cut holes. I know most people use a dremel, but why wouldn't you use a hole saw for a nice clean cut (particularly on aluminum cases)? Also, what do you use to finish the sharp interior edges of the hole following the cut? Do you grind the hole with the dremel or do you cover it with some type of plastic guard? I assume you do something since you don't want to be pulling your expensive cables through a razor sharp hole. Covering the interior edge with electrical tape would probably do, but that would look pretty ghetto.
