I would like to further add to the safety list, that if you are using a hole saw to cut through sheet steel, and said sheet steel is a crotch level... be sure to properly secure the steel from spinning. Sliced through shorts, underpants, thigh skin, and received a firm knock to the plums. After seeing my leg I wasn't sure what I was going to find in the gentleman's region.
