If you want to drill a hole in a exact location you need to use a center punch.

Thank you for link i'll see it but it will take long time Haha... because i use edge to connect internet i don't have hi-speed internet.

After got aluminium sheet and aluminium profile , Now i need to mark drill point ,detail of drill size (Imperial drill) and taps size all of aluminium sheet with my printout specification. It will take time to make it accuracy in every mm and every drill point need to recheck again to avoid any error.
