    Leah,
    I cannot understand why a major tool company hasn’t locked you into a long term contract to demonstrate their tools. Without a doubt,
    sales would go up.
    Electronic hugs to the greatest teacher on You Tube!

    Leah, thank you so much for making these videos! As a first-time home renovator (without a handyman husband), you have given me the confidence and knowledge to tackle all kinds of DIY projects I never thought I could do myself. You are the best!!

    I've had this tool in my shed for years and didn't realize it's capabilities. I'll certainly use it a lot more now. For such a small tool, it's really intimidating! Thanks so much for this video.

    Leah, I learn so much from you on here. THANK YOU!!! You would be an awesome neighbor! I'd be that annoying guy following you around saying "What are we gonna do next?" Anyhow I'm sure I'm not the only one who attends Leah's school for handyman wannabes but I gotta say please don't ever stop pumping these lessons out for us. We appreciate it more than you know!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

    I’m a beginner diy that received a rotozip from a friend who does construction. It was really encouraging to hear you say there is a learning curve and it will be ok. It gave a rush of feelings that I would hear from a very awesome teacher or an older relative. Thank you 🙏🏽

    I've had mine for 20 years. I really wish you'd been here then. It would have been so damn helpful. I made so many outside plywood crafts and learned by trial and error and sweat and swearing. Female here. Never ever knew it pulled to the right. Makes total sense. I blamed myself many times for tiny mistakes. Yay, wasn't me.

    I used my RotoZip when I turned a storage shed into a woodworking shop. Cutting plywood to size and cutting holes for outlets and light switches was a blast. As Leah says, it takes some getting used to, especially if you want clean cutouts. Had I needed to do several, clean cutouts for switches and plugs, I might have made a template. Wish the dust vault had been available when I did this 15 years ago. Great demo, Leah. I imagined about two more projects I've been putting off will get the old RotoZip out of deep storage.

  • @bobd5119
    @bobd5119 5 років тому +1

    Notice that Leah guides the straight edge of the tool's base along the plywood fence when making a straight cut. I find that it is easy to twist the tool while moving it. This diverts it from cutting straight, because twisting turns a corner of the base against the fence, which pushes the tools away from the fence. I made a 4"-diameter disk from a scrap of laminate flooring and attached it to the tool's base with a couple of machine screws. This way, I guide a circle along the straight-edge fence and twisting the tool won't move it away from the fence. A semicircle would work just as well.

    I don't have one of those, but after seeing you using it, I will be looking for one the next time I go to Lowe's. I thank you for demonstrating how to use it, and right now I am about to work on a ceiling to repair it, and that tool probably would come in handy for cutting the drywall and maybe in installing the drywall also.

    Hi Leah: You reminded a teacher who told me if one day you decide to teach Prepare your class as if you were gonna teach to the silliest people of the world, try to do it the easiest way you can, I did it, I explained the subjects with many examples, I spoke slow, I looked for detailed information. I think thats the way you do before you make your videos. Greetings from Mexico

    Hi Leah! I bought one of these years ago when they 1st came out and it only came with a drywall bit, BUT the manufacture didn't say it was mainly for drywall only, so I used it on plywood and of course it did a terrible job, it was one of the first tools I threw in the dumpster right after I bought it. JUNK.

      I've had many bad initial experiences with tools, but I'm too cheap to just throw them away. They tend to end up in a cupboard. Many years later I'll pull them out, and after watching UA-cam videos on similar tools, find that my bad experience was down to my own inexperience. Bad tools certainly exist, but I don't think this is one of them.

    Mine along with a bunch of attachments and accessories sat unused on a shelf for over 10 years. I was just never able to control the direction of the spiral bits and all the power it had. During a recent tile job I remembered that it included an angle grinder attachment. With a diamond blade it came in really handy for cutting thru concrete in tight quarters. I never heard of the dust vault. I may need to check that out. It is far more powerful, heavier and flexible than my Dremel
