This is mine I did with a dremil and a needle file.  Not perfect, could do with a bit more tiding up with the file but ok for now. You just need to take your time.


Nicely done.

What I will do with those punchouts of my KS case, is to drill one or two holes in the center. Here I will first make dents with something sharp, this is to prevent the drill from wandering off. Then I start with a small drill first (3 or 4 mm), and then gradually increase the size until the hole(s) are big enough so that some pliers can be used for carefully ripping out the remains (perhaps with the help of a sharp knife). By now the structure of the punchout should have weakened enough, so that doing this would go without any issues.

After this is done, I will use some small files for cleaning up the edges of the hole.

It looks like it would be difficult to make the screen knock-out on the top of the case turn out just right too.
