Default Roto zip -- circles ?

Then, too, there's the jigsaw technique for cutting the interior of a
wood sheet... The OP didn't say whether he wanted a circulare hole or
a circular plate. If the latter, there's a technique for so doing
using a table saw.


If he needs a circular hole, a set of drill bits will cost way less
than the Rotozip and probably leave him much happier. If he needs
circular plates (with a centered hole in the middle), a good hole saw
set will probably cost about the same as the Rotozip and probably
work much better.

In short, small rotary tools have few uses in woodworking.

Uh, if one needs, say, a two foot diameter hole, that's a Hell of a drill
bit. Same for a hole saw.
