Yeah the tools leave the business way more often than business owners...

I went to a HD yesterday that had 2 levels of rotozip.  The heftier one was $100.  I think I'm going to do just enough drywalling to make it worth my while to get one.  Maybe I will not do enough drywall to really cause the rotozip any problems, dunno.  There does seem to be a Chinese version, $22 on sale at HF right now.

Ok, so I posted, but I don't see my post even though the forum says I made the last post.  Sorry if this turns out to be a duplicate

I saw that rotozip makes a larger unit that costs about $100.  They have always looked crummy to me, that's why I'm hesitant to blow that much money on it.  I think it would be worth it to have one of these tools. I suppose I should just bite the bullet and settle on a type of cordless that uses lithium batteries

HF has one that costs $22 on sale.  Probably work for my lifetime amount of drywall, but the Dewalt at $60 seems like it might be better

I was cutting out some outlets in my new building with a rotozip.  I got pretty good at it when I built my shop a few years ago, but I didn't do such a good job on the first outlet on my new building.  Luckily not such a bad job that the outlet plate won't cover it.  Practice first somewhere it won't be obvious if you mess up.

I ordered the Dewalt and a pack of the bits.
