[macten]

sorry @macten .
but have strongly opposed.
measures cutters too limited
small holes ok, but large holes .......🙂

Sorry Antonio - not understanding your post.
You can make any size hole using the router bit

Comes with a few bits - I have all the accessories for my Rotozip but only used them a couple of times - too much hassle lol
I'm going to stock up on enough diamond router bits to last the lifetime of the new tool for fear of them being hard to track down in the future.
I'm on a bathroom refit at the moment and used my rotozip for cutting 120mm diameter circle for extractor - that's when it detonated.
Hopefully new on comes early next week because I've got about 50 holes to drill into porcs and loads of cut outs at the back of toilet/basin units and that's when you don't want to be without it.

120mm of porcelain?
only small cutter from photos?

Using this bit you can mill out any size and shape you want.

even porcelain thickness 10mm?

Does it not overheat with that bit? I can see lack of dust extraction and heat build up being an issue?

Did exactly that yesterday.
Obviously flies through ceramic and It does takes longer with thick hard porcs but once you figure out the right technique it's not too bad. If I can piano cut the bigger holes I'd always do that for speed but when it's in the middle of the tile I find it the best option (I don't want to spend a fortune on a huge 120mm wet core bit). No issues with heat build up using the milling bit but the 6 and 8 mm core drills can benefit from intermittent dipping in water apparently (not used them before).
I usually cut outside but dust isn't too bad - and it has an attachment to whack a vacuum hose on if you're indoors.
Best thing is all the other things you end up using it for. It's a bit like my Fein, got it to undercut door architrave but use it for so much more.

I had to make some holes in the centre of some tiles once and simply could not find my ATS stuff in the war zone that was the back of my van at the time, but I did have a 4'' grinder and in the box was a mortar raking tool I had recently used to do some repointing - I thought I would give it a try and it worked brilliantly, only ceramics though.

For Gods sake my Fein's bust now!
Both tools on the same job. Always happens on the run up to xmas
