I have drilled a crapload of panels. I didnt have a press (now i do...it REALLY makes things easier, mine even has a laser guide and was only 100.00 at sears) I used to take a scrap 2x4 about 1 foot in length, place the panel on top of it and take a nail and punch the center (aluminum is soft enough that this will work) then hand drill from front to back. You'll want to do front to back to make sure everything is centered...if it's slightly off you'll notice it big time when you put the knob on (not that i did that...;) )Just take it slow and you'll do fine.
