I'm planning to convert my Tempest to a Major Havoc, using the repro roller controller I just got from RAM. I have a spare CP so I don't have to hack the original. What's the best way to cut a clean rectangular opening in this metal? I don't see any metal punches that will cut straight lines; am I just not looking hard enough?

Go to a fab shop that does rectangular die cuts? Maybe a water jet or laser cutting company? I have wondered about this too. Maybe just a small Mom and pop CNC shop.
 
I searched for "Metal Fabrication Georgia" and found a bunch of metal fab shops nearby that do cutting. I guess I'll go stimulate the local economy!
