Ken Off the question a bit.. Harbor Freight has a slick handheld hole punch for around 30 bux.It has about 6 different dies.....big to small..... I use mine all the time..will do up to .080 fairly easily.... It looks like an industrial strength leather punch.
Michael- What you describe is called a Whitney Punch and is available in any real hardware store. Never saw one that notches corners, does yours?

Pat, My punch only makes holes..thats why I said"off the question a bit" The neat thing about Harbor's punch was the price tag.While it may be a "Nikkie Futso" import it seems to be holding up well.. A corner tool would be handy,specially for multiples jobs. For one of a kind jobs,I use an old stationary stand mounted belt sander with 16 grit teeth.Pretty quick,but noisy and messy
