Nice work man! By far the best demonstration I've seen on how to use the router. Thanks!
If the cut out tool has a guard for the depth in cutting, can it also be used to cut out door hinges?
This tool would not do a great job and I'm not sure the guild would let you cut that shallow. There are other tools that can do that task though. A router is the better choice.
Thanks man! Just got one of these tools and I wanted to be sure I was using it right. Your video was very thorough and precise.
Glad it helped!
Thanks for a great video! Your detail was excellent. You covered the depth the bit should stick out, the rotation of the cut, the type of bit, & the recess of the box into the drywall.Fantastic job!
Thanks for the basics. Decades ago I hung a lot of rock as part of my carpentry work. We would peer down the back of the rock and mark the outside of the box left and right, measure down to the top of the box which gave us the bottom distance too. Mark it score it X wise across the corners and bust it out with the hammer. I just picked up one of the rotary tools at a pawn shop to use while building my home. Thanks for the information.
OlTrailDog , I used to use a half ball of caulk and run it around the device, push the sheet against it and transfer the outline to the back of the sheet.
You're the best and have been for YEARS! Thanks for being a fantastic resource....never go away!
This was the best explaination I've found. Thanks!!
Excellent demonstration and information. Thanks, that was helpful!
Nice job rotary tool seems to get job done neatly. Thanks
Shannon thanks so much for your wonderful video on cutting out electrical boxes. You are real person and I appreciate all your 🇨🇦hard work. There are a lot of losers out there criticizing you. Forget them! Thanks again Shannon. Don Wocks
January 04/2024. I’m from London Ontario Canada. Happy New Year. 😀👍🇨🇦
Thank you so much!
Thank you for the video!
Thank you for this great video. I just watched three other similar videos but you were the first to explain that after stopping at the inside edge of the junction box you then remove tool and plunge again slightly further maybe 1/8 inch than the original plunge to cover thickness of the box and allow cutting along the outside edge, This is common sense but you are first to actually show the step. I do not do large project professionally plastering work and have been using oscillating tools or a utility knife since I would be cutting hung existing sheet rock to install or move a switch or outlet and just was curious about using a rotary tool. I notice you use ear protection but do not use a dust mask, I use a dust mask but usually no ear protection. I am bothered more by the dust than noise.
Thanks for the comments. I am bothered more by the noise of the rotary tool then the dust.
@@HouseImprovements You presently may not be bothered by the dust but as years progress the lining of your lungs will be damaged and your breathing and stamina will decline. Please research thus with google and consider a dust mask. And please don't tell me you can not smoke with the mask on (joking).
Here in Australia how things are done differently.The gyprockers (drywallers) would punch a small hole in the sheets for switches, lights,and powerpoints then pull all the wires through the holes then fix all the sheetings near the completion of the job the electricians would cut out the holes themselves fit lights switches power points game over!
Thanks- cleared up that the cut goes on the outside of the box!
Thanks sir, very helpful, like how you went slower..good pacing and detail for a novice.
I love these how to videos from guys who look like it’s their first time doing it
Thanks man. Good explanation
Thank you very much for you time and all your info
Great video
Muchas gracias 👍🎼👍🎼☕️☕️
Nice job, good demo!
Excellent tutorial, thanks
Always use guide point bits
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us Shannon. I have really enjoyed your videos. How would you make a but joint
Not too sure what you mean ? a Butt joint is two edges of non tapered drywall slid together? Our forum my be the lace for your question so we can discuss it more.www.house-improvements.com/forums/
Great video with detail instructions good job !!!
Glad you liked it
Thanks!
Great video,thank you so much,I always wondered how it was done.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us Shannon. I have really enjoyed your videos. How would you make a but
Not sure exactly what you what to know? please use our forum and we can talk there.www.house-improvements.com/forums/
Nice tool video. Thank You for sharing:
Does that machine cut thru plaster boards ? Wood ?
From India
Great video
Sr. Thank you very much you are helping me a lot Good bless you bye AND have a nice life
What if the switch or plug is already on the box
Do you think a Dremel Trio could do well for drywall working? Thanks!
Makes to much dust for me at the customers house. I use it now for pumpkin carving. Simply fantastic tool for that.
I also find that plaster dust is a big problem with a rotary tool or electric saw unless a vacuum cleaner attachment if added which often can not be done, thus since my work is not doing a whole home but specific remodeling projects I find using a utility knife or small manual saw is better, sometimes I will use an oscillating tool. But my concern is not speed but less dust.
Does machine cut thru sheet rock?
preset the depth of your bit before you start cutting, the guide should be the only thing protruding on the other side, otherwise you will cut your wires...
So great !
Thanks for the video!
Will that work on plywood?
Can this be used on plastic switch boxes?
In my experience it does not work as well but if you are careful you can.
Can you use that tool on hardiebacker??
I have never tried that but I think with the proper bit you likely could. The less dust you create using cement boards the better though. silica dust is not good for you.
but how fast can you move the tool? i don’t want to try it and then have the bit shatter on me.
start slow then. The tool will tell you if you're going to fast and it is really working.
and when there is plugs and switches in the box?
You will need to measure and mark the locations on the new sheets and cut with a drywall saw before you hang the sheets. This system only works on a situation where you only have wires in the boxes.
What is the drill model shown in 6:45?
Will it work for tile as well ?
Would this work on wood on the back of shelves/cabinets/ Tv stands? To cut out a hole to plug things in the outlet
with the correct bit it would.
Will it chew up a plastic box?
Well done, ty!!
very helpfull
"We're just doing a Wee piece here" Haha
4:40 start!
A other great video thanks again.
Good
What kind of drill is that?
This is a rotary tool used for this purpose but most rotary tools can be used for this purpose with the correct bits
What type of drill bits?
amzn.to/35Kzbrb
I'm not trying not to sound like a jerk but how does this beat a drywall knife
Quick measurement of a point in the middle of the box instead of measuring and transferring and marking all four edges to the drywall from the wall , then cutting with the drywall saw .Then you lift the sheet into place and find out you measuring and marking was off. Generally this is quicker and less mistakes.
This is by far quicker if the electrical wiring is out of the way and tucked back in the boxes if you have devices installed already then I would just measure mark and cut with drywall saw.
very nice
Thank you.
No worries!
Thanks just what I needed to know. Nice video.\
You should of got the measurements from side to side of the box to see where the box goes
There is NOT wee on that mock-up laddie! Lol
My husband and I built a house. We got to the drywall stage. After seeing vids on this item; I bought the Dewalt DW660. We found it very difficult to control. It would go off on it's own little trip, not easily following/cutting where it was supposed to. The depth guide was very unstable. In spite of tightening it as tight as it would go, it kept slipping so it was useless. The bit kept falling out. And instructions were very vague on putting bit in and taking it out. It seems you need more than 2 hands to do that. We ended up going old school on all the drywall cutting and it came out fine. Would not recommend or buy again. I usually like Dewalt tools but not this one.
Also you should go clockwise not counterclockwise because of the direction of the bit spinning. Same as a router
No its counter clockwise.
Nooooo,its clockwise. Look at your bit and figure it out. I’ve noticed you northern boys are a little hardheaded.That or you need to learn to duck when the hockey pucks coming at your head.
@@bwojak3226 done drywall in alabama for 10yrs . Always went counter clockwise . Just like video
You’ve been doing it wrong for 10 years then. I’ve been using a router for 40 years it’s all about the direction of the bit.
@@bwojak3226 always worked better than going clockwise
make sure the power is off
You can ride the inside of the box as well . It’s actually easier
Have to angle the tool though to get the drywall cut enough for the box to come through hole without damage.
@@HouseImprovements true
Step one, take the guid off and throw it in the garbage
Excellent vid! Mystery solved - I never knew how to use a Rotary/Cutout :)
Jeżeli chodzi o precyzję to słabo wygląda!
Ale urządzenie bardzo fajne.
Plasterboard dust kills...please wear a mask.
Holy crap
The issue is idiot sheet rock installers wants to stick all 3" of the bit into the center of the box and cut wires. No reason to go in middle. Go to a inside corner and then jump out.
Why is it that most of the do-it-yourself Home Improvement are done by people from Canada with the accents?
Currently inside a shop with 30’ of snow covering the building for 4 months…. “Well, ya wanna make a video eh?”
I can do it 5 times quicker with a Stanley knife. Its easier and tidier
The only problem, is you cut around the box, drywall stops.
Who uses corded tool’s anymore
Lame measure from the bottom to the very top of the box so u won’t do center avoiding the wires and cut
multitoul its beter
I take it this technique isn't going to work for my plastic boxes
Putting me to sleep over here.
stop drinking so much wine
looks like another electrician showing us how to hang board. lol. that box should only take about 3 seconds to rout eout if youre good.
And then he uses glasses
Whats wrong with protecting your eyes?
Toda rayada esa luz no vale bergs este vato
Throw that away and buy a multi tool, much more useful. Really cant see the point in this
These American boxes are an awful design why do they have the tabs on the outside 🤔 in the UK they are on the inside so it's just a rectangle or square without them tabs to cut around aswell
Yes the tabs for the screws are a pain . We do have a few boxes with them inside but not much selection.
🤣🤣🤣
Don't ever do this. Make your cuts before you hang your drywall. He already measured it. Only a fool would do this.
Drywallers are fools I guess? LOL
jigsaw is much better than this tool
Mexican can do better
Dude come work with me and my guys so we can teach you a little bit about drywall you rookie
Useless non real life lab demos. Little wee useless example.
Is that a regular drill bit you use for cutting
No there are specific bits for these tools for cutting drywall . And for cutting around objects like this they have a small flat area below the cutting area that is used as a guild so it does not cut the object you are going around.
@@HouseImprovements thank you for letting me know
When I built my house those drywall cutters were not available yet. Sure would have saved me a lot of measuring and time.
With all this pulling out and plunging back in, this video should come with a R rating.
Thanks!
Well explained but I hope it doesn’t take that long in reality cause by the time it took to make that cut my guys would’ve hung 10 sheets if drywall
In your industry you should already be using this tool, you also know that unless you have 10 guys hanging drywall, they arent getting 10 sheets in the time he made that cut.
miguel lara , if you are in the business then you would already know that in the field this tool is extremely efficient....in the right hands of course. this guy doesn't use the tool enough.
awkward Shannon
GOOD TOOL when there is BUNCH OF DRYWALL... and you don't mind spending the MONEY... so if you want to make ton of dust this your TOOL.
I hang drywall everyday and this is the best, fastest, and most precise way to cut out electrical boxes. He just moves way to damn slow. I could have cut out 10 boxes and 2 Windows by the time he got that one!
guzmanfann , it's great for someone who knows how to use it efficiently. you definitely have to have a certain feel for the tool and the guy in the video doesn't have it. in the right hands this tool is unbelievable. check out board hanger videos and see how it is used by competent drywallers.
Yeah he needs lot of practice. At least he pushed the wire's back in the box.
Great video.
Plus de vidéos merci beaucoup c'est très bien
I’ve always used a keyhole saw. Then I got introduced to this and I had a lot of trouble lol. I’ll have to practice more
Dan Gauthier
I've learned that the right bit is very important to the function of the tool. I started buying RotoZip Xbit drywall bits and they made a huge difference. They're a larger diameter than the standard run of the mill bits so you have to swap out the collet in your tool but the oversized guide point on the end follows the fixtures perfectly. Every once in a while I'll get a little squirrelly with a box here or there but they are few and far between compared to when I used to use the cheapest value pack bits off the rack.
Just always remember outside routing counter clockwise, inside routing clockwise. Some things are more difficult then others to router. For instance a ceiling a/c vent loves to eat router bits at the corners, if you find yourself breaking bits it might be easier for you to take measurements of the box, mark them out, and use as a guide for routing so you can find those bit eating corners. A glide point tip works great on plastic boxes but not so much on metal boxes and can also be troubling on a/c ceiling boxes with the 1/2 inch lip, the glide point is about 1/2 inch itself so you wind up struggling to get the glide point to cut the sheetrock on those style boxes.
thanks Robert, you should have made this video. this video was too long compared to the amount of info given. the bit selection is as important as the proper use of the tool.
Another great tutorial, thanks Shannon!
