Fantastic tool - have you seen the porcelain bits for this? Core bits & freehand cutting bit that cut DRY in porcelain, and claim 100 holes per bit!

Have a rotozip, tile cutting bits don't last long, very brittle.

Are you using the old bits for ceramics (I think they're called Zip Bits) or the new Diamond X-Bits?

I have the Ryobi One+ version.

I thought it would be useful, but I can't see the point of it. Its dusty, hard to control accurately, and the bits break too often.

It's under the stairs with the teasmade, yoghurt maker, chocolate fountain and george foreman grill icon_rolleyes.gif

i am easily convinced to get new toys but but the rotozip looked so pointless that when i bought the dewalt 18v one naked for £45 i converted it to a 1/4 light router with an old ferm plunge base
