I use one of these:

I thought it was gonna kill my hand but it wasn't bad at all... on a steel chassis at that. It was pretty cheap... I will probably get a higher grade when I have to get another one.

It has pretty well paid for itself though.

The easiest way is to just get an rj chassis.

I tried one of those it didn't even open wide enough tofit the chassis to do any nibbling!

It sits on my bench now.

I have a 3/4" square knockout punch. Usually takes 3 shots for an EIC male but cuts through like butter.

Do you have a source for those?
