Saturday, October 1, 2011 Rotozip XW-WD1 Flush Wood Cutting Wheel Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this to use for removing underlayment below toe-kicks (see my review of the Rotozip RZ20-4500 for full description).It cut through 1/2" plywood underlayment with linoleum over it with no effort at all, as expected.The pleasant surprize was that it also went through a couple of hidden nails without trashing the blade.This blade uses a bonded grit for cutting rather than teeth.

The resulting sawdust is fine.It clouds the air and floats around the work area.This could be expected so I can't downgrade the tool as a result.Keeping the nozzle of a vacuum cleaner close to the cut keeps the sawdust from going everywhere.This helps keep the homeowner happy.

About RotoZip
RotoZip was founded in 1972 when a professional drywall contractor sought a better, faster way to cut drywall. Focused on saving time and money while improving his results, this single vision soon spawned a complete line of high performance professional tools, accessories and attachments for cutting a wide variety of building materials. Today, RotoZip continues to build upon the same strong foundation established over two decades ago as the world's number one Spiral Saw system.
