If the Rexon will accept piercing saw blades then get a pack of them from any jewellers or clockmaking supplier. I've hand-pierced 1.2mm thick stainless with my piercing saw.

If I remember Axminster used to sell Rexon as I have a bench drill which I am sure I bought from them at a show at Warwick many moons ago.
