RE: OT RotoZip

Used it to cut a hole (using the circular hole cutter) in some furniture
last night - here's some top tips:

1. Make sure the pivot point nut is done up tight, otherwise you'll end up
going round and round cutting out a progressively larger circle! I only got
half way round before I noticed.
2. Make sure the pilot centre hole is a nice, neat, hole, and not a chuck
o=
f
chip board spat out by the RZ as you try to make the nice , neat hole.
Otherwise result will be a wobbly oval.
3. Do your first trial run on something non-essential! (I did, some
furniture in the office that needed some ventilation (though probably not
quite as al fresco as it eventually ended up, see points 1 & 2!

Good fun though, and the office cleaners were thrilled at my efforts ;-)

Ok I got one.
(to SWMBO:  "but it only _REALLY_ cost =A324.98 coz someone gave me
=A325 f=
or
inserting a new hard drive into their PC")

Erm?

Has anyone used it for cutting holes in plasterboard for UK drywall back
boxes?  Whats the technique because you cant use the outside of the box as
the template?

Anyone tried it for chasing out plasterwork channels (with a bit, not with
the grinder)

What have others used it for?
