Review on ๐Ÿ”ช Qbit SQ1000-S Power Oscillating Multi-Tool Blade Saw: Precise Cutting for Single Gang Outlet Box by Durioki Cordaro

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great tool but be careful around drywall edges and old work.

This tool performs exactly as you'd expect, cutting nice holes in drywall. It tends to run a bit at first, which you can compensate for as you get used to how it works. I have found two situations where you need to be extremely careful when using this saw. Of course you have to be careful not to hit anything from the back when you're cutting the old working drywall, but if you're cutting, say, two holes on opposite sides of the stud, one for power and one for low voltage, you have to be careful. BE VERY careful as the section in the middle will break off from the vibration of the saw. I've tried this half a dozen times on installed and removed drywall. Two holes about 2 inches apart or less cannot be cut with this tool without first cutting out the next few sides or without very, very careful work. And sometimes it takes a lot of work to close that gap between two individual holes. worth $45? If you're cutting a lot of single gang exhaust holes, yes. If you have a room or two, consider using a regular drywall circular saw for your oscillating tool instead.
