Post by: JWhiteLightning on August 21, 2008, 08:25:31 PM: That is correct, using a dremel preferably, but Id recommend reading up on it about it, and maybe watching a few videos, because you dont want to make the hole too large, or you will need a new umd door. :fear:

if you're gonna do it yourself, read up very very very carefully...or you could buy a pre-done door with a jewel already in it

A thing to remember is also that the Company that makes dremels is, ironically, called Dremel. So when you're looking to buy one, make sure it's made by Dremel or, well, it's not a dremel lol
