Just checked and I have the RZ5, don't know if that alters the life of the bits but as I say, mines still going strong.

Re: New Rotozip Review.....

Dave, have you got the 3 way chuck or collet system?
I initially had a problem of the bit getting loose (subsequently realised I wasn't using the nut and was only hand tightening!) and Bosch were very good - they sent me the collet system to try (don't use it though) and 3 spare diamond xbits!

I had something similar a bosch rotocut,
had it a few years before it finally packed in, bits weren't very good tho' and couldn't use it on site (240v) does rotozip come in 110v?

Re: New Rotozip Review.....

110v...yes it does..

Re: New Rotozip Review.....

Here is a picture I found that shows how precisely the RotoZip will cut with the diamond blade attachment. This tile was cut for a toilet flange. The Rotozip is smoother and with less vibration than a grinder, and thus has less chance of breaking a tile.
