There is no easy way to do this. The way everyone I have spoke with has had to do this, including the guy who made my aluminum armor, is with a drill and needle files. You'll need to mark exactly where you want them with either a marker or tape, drill a bunch of holes as close as possible to each other, and use the needle files to finish the job. Aluminum actually files pretty easily. It's not that hard to do, but there is no good way to fix a mistake so take your time. Dremels just have a tendency to slip and skip where you didn't want them to go.
