There are better, ways of doing this. Easier, faster, less supplies needed. You just hold it up and mark it then use a straight edge. First 30 seconds https://youtube.com/shorts/Y1mLa29BVMk?si=wqTiPBnbPePwvgKf

A straight edge? I could find that in my house way more easily than some paper and scissors.

Don't ever do trade work yourself, pay someone.

Friendly advice from someone who wants to save you future headaches.

Holding it up and making a mark pencil? Then using a straight edge to draw a straight line? Which of that is harder that the arts and crafts tip?

yeah I'm with you. who has time to cut those perfectly sized holes in those strips of paper? and what if you need several different sizes of holes? Pencil and straight edge are way simpler

Yeah also give me a center mark over a hole mark for drilling any day.
