Pretty cool. Never even heard of these before. Leave it to Makita! Like an upside down jig 🙂

Love it. I do a ton of ceiling tile and drywall cuts above my head.

looks a bit cumbersome for overhead work, however looks to be a plunge type cutter which is nice….

MikeyBMember since Dec 2014Dec 12, 2015 4:55 PM CT

That is a nice looking tool

Well, they make an 18v coffee maker, so that IS a logical progression….

Makita should really bring this over here! I think it has way more control and precision than a rotozip. The only problem I see is recessed cans but you can use one of the various hole saws for those now.

I’m assuming blade travel must be low compared to jigsaw or hackzall?

Would have to have some sort of a depth adjustment

They need to make rectangle hole saws, its a pain to mark each electrical box and then cut it out with a drywall saw..lol
