It was a combination of an electric handsaw and a rechargeable Dremel Micro. Placed the background against the back wall, traced the slits on the backside of the background, used the electric handsaw to make the initial slits on the backside of the background, and came back in with the Dremel to widen the slits through the front. These backgrounds are TOUGH - the front portion is some sort of mix of plastic and stone, and my little Dremel Micro wasn't large and strong enough to punch through on its own. A larger, stronger, plug-in Dremel probably would have been, but not mine. It was able to widen the slits just fine on its own after they were made, though.
When I build my next display enclosure with a background, I'll probably go with a combination of side and top venting to avoid having to drill slits again. It was rather annoying.
