How do you punch a square hole?

(1/4) > >>

Hoagie_one:
I'm gonna need to punch some square holes in my Metal CP for carriage bolts to secure a trackball.  How does one punch clean square holes?

Thenasty:
drill a hole on the four corners and use a dremel.  ;)

Hoagie_one:
gotta be an easier way. Do they make square hole punches?

whammoed:
Holes don't have to be square.  I have had no problem tightening the nuts on carriage bolts with round holes drilled...especially on the trackballs...I remember them (happs and ultimarc) having square holes in them that would lock in the bolt.

Hoagie_one:
holes on my imperial are circle.  I guess I could drill em and them file em a little.
