I use a Manual Greenlee Punch Set for my job all the time, on all different gauges of sheet metal, it works great. Definatley the right tool for the job you want to do, NOT a hole saw, it will float around on you, the Unibit would work too, if you get one big enough. The Manual Punch Set is $88.00, but cuts clean whole and will last forever if you take care of it. Your best bet.
