when you use a drywall router, you cut a clock-wise direction for inside cut-outs like door and window openings, and counter-clock-wise around outside cut-outs like outlets and lights. the tip of the bit is called a "guide point" and the cutting part are "spirals".
If you go clockwise when routering inside edge (door ro's, window ro's) and counter clockwise when routering outside edge (outlet boxes) it won't"run away"on you
So when I decided I would like to try some wood carving, ruclips.net/user/postUgkxfPgcZ5_Cl0HDUKkMJAKde11YKQZVgMoR I went all out and got the best Dremel I could find. I quickly discovered that carving just by hand is a long process (and painful on the hands). Rotary tools can all basically do the same things, but this one has two particular features that set it apart. First, you can use it much more dextrously since it doesn't have a power cord pulling on it. You can also take it anywhere without pulling an extension cord along with you. It's hard to overestimate the benefit of this. You'd think that you'd have to sacrifice some power for this, but this Dremel has a very strong and long-lasting battery and it charges quickly. Secondly, while most rotary told have a few speed settings, this Dremel has a sliding scale, from very slow to extremely fast. This thing can do about a million different jobs, but I would point out one drawback, which is certainly not unique to Dremel, is that it's a small chore to change out the different tips.
Is it me or the 2019 make some extreme loud noise and vibration? Me and another employee have noticed the 2019 batch are verry loud compared to the older one ( same version DCO180 ). The only time the old one does that kind of sound is when its full of dust you just shake it a bit for the dust to go out and it just fix itself. But the 2 loud we have are brand new.
I have the DCO180Z. I am a woodworker. I have a specific need to work with heart rimu, there are some curves. The rimu I am working with is 10mm thick. Do you think I can use this to make some small curves? Will it accept a router bit, of which I already have too? i also have a Dremel for other reasons.
I have a broken Rotozip with many attachments (sanding, grinding, masonry, etc) sitting around, gathering dust. Can I use the RZ attachments on this cutout tool, or other brand cutout tools?
the time saving reason to use a drywall router is there is no measurement. you install the drywall with enough screws to secure the sheet, then plunge the router into the box, cut until you feel the box, lift the router over the box to the outside, then move around the box counter clockwise. I guarantee its faster and more accurate in a production setting.
+RangerCaptain11A , Yeah that is the big plus. Here in OZ we dont use the boxes like you guys in the US do. We do use a metal plate, the only issue is that sometimes the wiring is already hanging out and can make it hard to run the router around without nicking the electrical wires.
I bought a Dewalt cordless router but it is only 26,000 rpm and it has a hard time going thru 5/8 drywall. Do you know if it is as strong and fast as a regular RotoZip.??
+Cristian Ruiz , Hi Christian, im not sure, they rep picked the tool back up after the review so i dont have the spec's on it. Maybe try Makita's website for more info. cheers.
It's a complete cash grab by Makita though, it is essentially the same tool as the Makita DGD801Z die grinder, with a circular platform added to the business end. Yet the Makita die grinder sells for around $115 AU in Bunnings and this drywall cutter is around $230 AU. Am I the only one thinking "Rip off"?
Thinking the same thing. Could make a jig for the die grinder and use sturdier bits. I'd even rather buy a dremmel than waste money on this one trick PoS. Or just don't get so stoned that I can't cut the fucking chalk and cardbord sandwich with a saw or snap and score it like every other cunt that's not retarded.
+Mile Mitreski dunno about that! if you gotta do 60 plus sheets a day every day you would appreciate a good cordless router...but obviously not a makita
This is the most ridiculous tool ever.... Knife, saw and the ocillating saw does all of this already. I love Makita products but this is just a useless piece of kit.

+RangerCaptain11A , Thanks for the tips on the machine, that makes sense.

Great tip, thanks!

highly considering buying one to see if its the goids

Здравствуйте, подойдёт для работы с гибким валом ?
Looks a bit wayward for downlighters I'll stay with a tank cutter for now ,nice idea though will be interesting to see where it leads.
If the dry wall is plastered, Will this go through?
Why not? Its plaster not steel
can i ask how to clean the dust，and how to keep smoke running，any lubricant to put？
I have a broken Rotozip with many attachments (sanding, grinding, masonry, etc) sitting around, gathering dust. Can I use the RZ attachments on this cutout tool, or other brand cutout tools?
You can use anything that will fit in a 1/8" collet.
Does it can cut out villaboard as well?
That’s my question as well. But apparently it’s up to the bits, there is cement board cutting bits specially in the hardware shop.
How would this tool handle a double layered dry wall?
They like to walk, the new jig style drywall cutter works way better
Is this faster than using a multi cutter?
does that guide mark the gyrock though say if it grabed or something and you where using it on finished gyprock
Hey Mate, not that ive found.

Don’t glue close to where you screw kids. The glue will shrink as it dries and pop the screws.
I got one but the battery drains quickly
Looks awkward to hold, surely Makita could have made a palm size tool, like their cordless sander
can this router door hinges?
Not this one, but their small trimmer will.
I have the trimmer but its not cordless

different RPM, different motor, different electronics, different tool altogether. They just look similar.
Plates in wrong direction. you need something like TÜV....
uselest toss of a tool , worth a 10 quid
?
Лайк 👍
I hope you dont drywall alot 🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
I can do it 10 times faster with a plasterboard knife!! Big mistake with this makita!!!
Well ain't you just a fucking living legend?
Mile Mitreski Agree, but it does have some benefits over the knife.
Dave Allum Haha, sounds like it :)
+Mile Mitreski dunno about that! if you gotta do 60 plus sheets a day every day you would appreciate a good cordless router...but obviously not a makita
+Mile Mitreski haha thats what I thought too

We've been using routers for 20 years as a high speed drywall cut out tool...makita just made it cordless. Smart!
