I got mine from ebay, it was a kit with all the different sizes.

cheers mate,will have a look on ebay tonight,never thought of using ebay for tools before(doh!!)

remember that if it's for a 120mm fan you actually want the hole smaller than that.

 

[nepas]

only ones I can find on ebay are max size of 85mm

EDIT:reckon this would be any good?? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Adjustable-Ho...yZ121892QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I bought one of those originally, and they are a prize POS!!! It can cut through really thin material but is a right ballache to use.

There you go mate, just remember you need an arbor too.

I have a steel case and im trying to cut a hole for my 24pin connector. What would be best to cut that? So far ive been through 2 HSS bits, a titanium coated HHS bit, and tried using a cut off wheel on an angle grinder but its not working to well either.

You need a bi-metal hole saw to do a decent job.

For some reason 111mm bit rings a bell for the right size for 120mm fans, but i'm not sure on that. Was a while since I looked it up.

These are the sort of things I've used in the past but bigger.

Edit:

This has big enough cups but might not be amazing quality.

Use a dremel. Takes patience but works a treat

Search for a 114mm hole saw and you might have more luck!

How bout one of these:

Although you'd need to get hold of a pretty big one, the one on the image is for holes from 6 to 20mm. It used for metalplates and such.
