Thanks a lot! Havent thought of it that way! Will try it right away!Originally posted by NeoStrider
one way you could do it (and some will groan) is to do a boolean subtract using a cylinder. afterwards you could delete the history and then delete the faces of the cylinder inside your object. there's your hole.

I could use booleans, but on some parts it couldnt be used, on those parts I stuck a Cylinder trough the place I wanted the hole to be (not combined) and then I used the split polygon tool with the cylinder as reference, then deleted the cylinder and deleted the round shape, tweaked some edges etc.
