Hi, just a question regarding this video what's the difference between this tool and a multitool
@@Canipeks Check out our video on multi-tool uses, they are very different: ruclips.net/video/Yhxs4CDtgSk/видео.html
@@Canipeks this tool is a rotary tool used for cutting out drywall. A multi tool is an oscillating tool that is typically used for cutting wood, nails etc. it is for those hard to reach areas . it also can sand and do a lot more. i use them once and a while to cut drywall if i'm renovating but mostly I use it to cut wood and sand wood.
@@hammerandhome thanks for the tip, however I'm planning to purchase one of these but as I already have a multi tool, didn't know whether this drywall tool would be something extra as I wouldn't need it because I'm using the multitool that does the same job.
P.S I guess it really depends on personal choice too at the end of the day what you do and so on forth.
I love mine, I have used it for doing around framing for windows, basic sheet rock, I have even used it for inside and outside corners of Cove Vinyl, and switching rollers on Vinyl window sashes when the operation was wrong.
Was struggling with this tool for the first time. Very helpful tips, thanks dude
Thanks Brad, enjoy seeing the mistakes and the failure analysis, makes for a much more informative video.
yeah no prob, didn't go as planned but happy it was a teachable moment.
Thank you for the quick run over with this tool. Have wanted one for years an don’t really need it for a do it myself kind of person in my own home but it’s nice to have to make things that much quicker.
You're welcome! It's so satisfying to do things yourself, right?!
@@hammerandhome absolutely! An thanks again
Nice review. I think to help beginners you should stress the use of the depth guide bracket that you kept on the other tool. It keeps the beginner from going too deep into the box (away from the wires) as well as it will keep you from getting hung up on the other edges around the electrical box. You just adjust the guide to just a little wider than the thickness of the drywall. Thanks for helping out dude.
Thanks! I think I might do another vid showing that depth guide. Cheers
Thank you very much
For all your time
And for Sharing all these info you have a blessed day
You’re very welcome, thanks for watching!
I learnt from this video the direction of the cutting tool around the box fixtures. Inside the box, move the cutting tool in clockwise direction, outside the box, counterclockwise. Thank you
thanks
Excellent demonstration. Thank you for actually showing how to use this on real drywall. It makes the whole thing much more clear.
Great review
Best video demonstrating DCS551
Good video. I got one of these in a bundle, was trying to figure out used for it. If this is all it does. Seems like a giant, noisy, messy, tool to replace a small hand held drywall saw.
Great review.
I like it always doing odd jobs around house .I'm s roofing contractor and DeWalt is and always been a great tool. Put a roof on today with there 20 volt roofing gun and I love that gun
Thanks Brad. The tutorial was great.
Thank you!
ty very much for the info
I know it’s not ideal but could I use Dewalts compact router with a 1/4” rotozip bit? I just need to do a few boxes.
You are a excellent teacher thanks!!!
thank you very much! Happy to help :)
What are the differences between the pits? When I got mine it came with 2 different ones
Was debating drywall cutter vs jigsaw. You answered my question with the metal box.
Happy it helped😊
thanks for sharing. awesome..
Thanks for the help locking this bit I to the tool😅
Does this only work with drywall or can you use it on other material?
Is this "drywall cutout tool" the same as a Rotozip or any other brand of rotary cutout tool/spiral saw, or is it a "lite" version only recommended for low resistance material like drywall? Maybe a trim router would be more functional for cutting wood, or is this strong enough? Thanks, Tony.
What was the clamp used in this video?
How does it do with the ends of the cut? Does it create burs
Does anyone know if this is considered a rotary tool?
That’s great when you have an object to trace but how do you freehand cut in the middle of a hollow section? I can’t keep it straight….
Will this work on plastic electric boxes?
Proper review thank you
Glad you liked it!
Hi Brad, nice video.....for newbs, would it useful to use the Cut-out tool’s depth guide so that they don’t get hung up on the electrical box metal bits that are a bit deeper? I have the corded De Walt DW660 and I find the depth guide set at drywall thickness plus 1/4” is very helpful to stop me from getting hung up and I seem to get clean cuts from it.....
yes, good point. when I first started using these tool I used the depth guide on them, then eventually it came off and i never went back.
Great video. Found this while viewing your drywall screw gun video (great video as well) Can you use the same technique for wood paneling? I've had to do a few remodels with paneling and spent way too much time cutting out the boxes and switches.
thank you! I wouldn't recommend this tool for wood paneling, a small trim trim router with a tracing bit would work best
Can’t go wrong with dewalt I bought the screw gun and router kit and got a extra router for free and two 2 ah batteries and a super charger for a little under 300.00 and there still running strong after 3 years
True craftsman. Doesn’t need a gauge, only skill
I’m pretty damn smart and no novice, but that chuck and collar humbled me. Thanks for the help!
No prob. It definitely takes a bit of getting used to.
hi Brad, thanks for video, I have a question, this tool is good to cut fire line drywall? pink boards 15mm?
no prob
*THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!*
3:17 As an Electrician, there is NO reason you should be inside the box. I've yet to have job where the drywaller didn't hit a wire or miss cutting out a box. I've known electricians that have heated all their boxes up before drywall, hoping for sparks to fly. Also, stop cleaning your knife off in a box. Peeps always crack wise about the feud twixt Plumbers and Electricians. I think it's Drywallers that irritate us the most.
I mostly use the oscillating multi tool for the same purpose. haven’t ran into a situation where I would need this tool
Me too, though I’m contemplating buying this tool because of speed but also because the drywall dust gets inside the oscillating tool - I’m worried about ruining it.
Nobody shows how to put the cutting off blades for steel and where to buy them?
Thank You.
You're welcome, thanks for watching!
Thank you very mucho for helping us to learn more about it. God bless you 🙏. I just buy a dewalt rotory because I'm starting my drywall company. God bless and my present and future company....
Best of luck!
helpful. looking for tool to cut a piece of drywall for odd-shaped opening in ceiling.
This would definitely be the best tool for that.
can i cut 3/4 wood with this
4:15 that is the most ok important part, if you don't things get ugly🤣
Nice video,hey whats the adapter called on your drill when you screw the drywall ??
It the collated magazine for the dewalt drywall gun. ruclips.net/video/6L04EAPm4Zs/видео.htmlsi=vcMDzekEgzm6IO_X
Can you do a video of that joist drill using it to mix concrete?
i never use any type of Drill to mix concrete. I would use it for a thinset. concrete should be mixed with a shovel or a mixing machine. it would burn out any drill because of the amount of rock in it.
@@HandymanHustle Definitely a great drill for those applications. I used the Mixing drill and still wouldn't recommend it for concrete, even if dewalt is saying its good for it. You will love your new purchase the more you use it. thanks for watching!
Use the guard. so you don't have to do all the extra depth judgments
Surely plastic back boxes don’t work for this?
Thank you. I was having trouble changing the bit. Now it's a breeze
Glad to help!
Big fail for me. Couldn’t get it to trace around the box. I was using 5/8. Guide bit was riding above the box edge. Bits were also breaking. Frustrated ended up cutting with drywall hand saw.
same here my i later learned i was just being an animal with it and pushing the bit too hard on the drywall causing them to break
I don’t understand why clamping it down caused the blow-out. Can you explain a bit further. Enjoy yours vids. Thx. Might buy this tool. Dewalt!!!
no prob, the clamp is to simulate the drywall being screwed down to close to a cutout, this will put pressure on the drywall and when you do a cut, the closer you get to the end of your cut the drywall will give and potentially break, like it did in the vid. hope that helped
Great video. Whats the pencil you used in this?
That's a Pica, my favorite. You can get it on Amazon USA: amzn.to/3pJRlTW and Canada: amzn.to/3pKRNBg
@@hammerandhome Awesome, thanks for the reply.
Can I use this power tool to take down a dry wall ceiling?
if you need to cut around things it might be helpful. but a good hammer and some friends is the best way to pull a ceiling.
Might be better with a Makita Drywall Saw
Why on earth do they not make a circle guide or dust collection system for this?
it would be handy that's for sure,
The first screwhead! Flush is good!!!! Never trust those PB drills, trowel killers
3:47. I'm betting that's what the depth guage is for.
Right? Seems helpful to be able to adjust your depth to set it to just past half an inch.
think I could cut Luann/hollow doors with this?
Definitely not. Go for a router instead
Works well on a metal box, but what about a plastic box?
it works, just don't be to aggressive with it
Bro where did you get that pencil?
On Amazon, here's a link: USA: amzn.to/30ZqTd7 Canada: amzn.to/2X1xiTB it's a Pica and I use it all the time!
@@hammerandhome Awesome! I think I'll have to get one. Appreciated
My man
Can you use it on thin metal?
Not really. The bits that you can buy for this are typically designed for cutting drywall
Bro it literally says DRYWALL TOOL lol 😂
Can this tool cut wood too?
not really. better off getting a router for wood
It's 26,000 RPM correct?
26,000 rpm’s
Anyone found a good way to capture the dust from these things? Tried one and it kicked out so much dust I opted to use a drywall saw instead.
you could tape a vacuum nozzle to the side of it if you wanted, but it will make it harder to use
The box
So it doesn't come with depth guide.... I'm new at using one....The tapers hate me....maybe not in two years or so....
Bomber!
Why not just leave the depth gauge on and take away all the unnecessary guess work as to wether you are too deep or not and risk damaging the electrical wires? Makes more sense IMO.
It’s just how it feels easier to use. If you watch other drywall vids you might notice that other guys do the same.
@@hammerandhome Yeah I’ve seen a lot of guys using them like that. Was just making the point as to why not just use the gauge. It was obviously researched and included as part of the tool for a good reason.
What bits does it use
will take roto zips
Lol, yea right
He removed the depth gauge :0. dont do this if your cutting electrical boxes you can hit wires.
2600 rpm?
Definitely misspoke. 2600 RPM wouldn't cut through paper very well. Probably just start a fire. 26,000 RPMS though can probably cut through ice. Anybody tried that?
Sacked
What happens when you have a double gang box
It’s really no different. You plunge into the middle and move to the side, pull out a bit and find the outside of the box. Then follow it around.
No thanks I will go with oscillating tool
I wanted a tool that cut through drywall but your right an oscillating tool can do the same an I just need to buy one tool an not two
26 THOUSAND RPMS. NOT 26 HUNDRED.
I’m just not that guy
Lol
That drywall didn't even send. I'll use an impact to the day I die.
what a messy cut!!!
NÃO COMPREM ESSA MÁQUINA! Esse sistema de trava rápida é uma porcaria, A broca de 1/4" custa uma fortuna e a máquina pifou em 14 meses com pouco uso. LIXO!
I would have to disagree, I’ve had two running for years with no issues. My Drywaller also uses the same one with no issues.
Can I cut a plywood with the tool?
Not really. You’re better off to get a router
