I think I'm not the only one in this situation: want to do a fairly straightforward case mod, e.g., a blowhole or a window, but don't have the tools that may be needed to do it properly*. Getting the tools, e.g., a CNC machine, a laser cutter or even something much-much cheaper, is just not justified given the scope of the mod. I'd imagine that for some lack of skill or confidence may also be at play.
* by properly I mean that it looks as if it was done at the factory. Not to offend those who make case windows with dremel in their hands, but I fail to see how this approach leads to a really straight cut that does not need to be hidden with rubber molding of some kind.

I'd appreciate if anyone with actual experience could provide info. It would also be great, if someone who has made case modding his profession (I believe we have a few folks like that here) and is willing to take an occasional order would reply to advertise his services.
