What exactly is one? mark A 1/8th" or 1/4" bit doing 30,000 rpm. Bit looks like a drill bit, cuts on the sides. Can drill a hole then move it about, but performance was utter ---. Google rotozip.

Any thin rigid material that wants a hole or trimming or profiling. Acrylic for shed windows springs to mind - the rotary saw was the only thing that would do the job. Okay, not exactly daily use but occasionaly the right tool Bob |

Okay, not exactly daily use but occasionaly the right tool Bob I'll bear that in mind, though I would have thought the steep spiral cutting edge would grab and break the acrylic. About the only time it made any progress at cutting the chip was when it grabbed and tried to kick the tool back. I doubt I'll ever use it tbh, you live and learn.. NT |

It was the only tool that *didn't* grab and break the bloody acrylic! Clamp it to a workmate with a guide to slide along and it did the job perfectly. -- Bob Mannix (anti-spam is as easy as 1-2-3 - not) |
