Jordan, punching them in an ironworker is the easiest way. Surely in your area a metal fab shop has one of these machines.
Aside from that you can try to do youself by annealing the metal at the ends where you want to drill. You need to heat up to a dull red and let air cool. I believe you can try to temper again by re-heating and quenching quickly in oil.
