2. There is a need to make many 10mm holes in a rubber hose. It is not hard to punch or drill holes except that the hose is very flexible. It stretches, compresses and bends. So, making the holes accurately is a complicated task. The supervisor tried to burn the holes with a heated iron rod, but the edges of these holes were uneven and brittle. "Nothing can be done! How annoying!" exclaimed the exasperated supervisor. How could it be done?
