Perforated Metal?

Is there a way to get a perforated metal sheet modeled in AC without creating a thousand operators cutting holes through a surface? There's a perforated surface within AC that looks great, but it does not have actual perforations through it, its just a fill (see image below).

 

Thanks,

 

Phil

Don't use textures in elevations.

It can make the files impossible to print in my experience.
