Hey Guys, Does anyone have a RotoZip saw, or have you used one? Are they worth having? What have you found that they work well for? I need to cut some drywall, and heard them suggested -Thanks, Wayne

They do work well. They will cut drywall, wood, metal, tile, etc. Like a Dremel tool on steroids. I usually use a dremel for drywall, it is plenty powerful. But the RotoZip is a more powerful tool. I

Wayne, Lot's more muscle than a Dremel IMHO. I have a right angle attachment as well, very useful. Bought mine from CPO Bosch http://www.cpotools.com/ (factory reconditioned or some such) at a decent

What kind of drywall cutting are you needing to do? I use a Rotozip to cut out electrical outlets, etc. in drywall, but it makes too much dust and takes too long for most cutting. I use either a kni

I have had one for about 10 years and it is great. Just right for electrical box cuts in drywall and really great for tile. I also have the circle cutter device and if you need a 18 inch perfect cir

I have one of these also. While the tools is great as a higher powered dremel, I always seem to break bits when I try to cut something. Even drywall (may I'm not patience enough.) They do have a dryw

Wayne - They work well, but can also make lots of dust. Think of them as a little router. My last use was trimming drywall for an attic hatch. I had a hatch made of thin plywood that fit well for yea

I'm sure he was talking about adding new boxes. This would imply that there would not be wires behind the wall you were cutting. By code the wire should be 1.5 inches below the surface. I assume you

Pat gave a great answer. The wires need to be tucked in and the depth of the bit is just a bit more than the thickness of the drywall. The pros do a box in about 10 seconds. Brian ___________________

I've always done it by measuring / marking the box and cutting it with a drywall saw... But now I've got one of those roto-zip deals (HF to the rescue. :-) and maybe I'll try this method next time.

That makes things a lot harder if you want to route the boxes in place. Personally, I'd pull the outlets and switches, it would take less effort and be faster than manhandling the drywall. However,

Well, it's probably 6 or 7 feet through the wall from the top to where the outlet is. Drilling a hole that long with zero tolerance isn't what I'd call easy ... not to mention that it's kind of poin
