Not for waffle lanterns

When ordering, I did not quite understand the principle of operation. I was hoping the light tool would help me with my waffle lights, but it only works for glass lights. The socket tool worked great for me even though I didn't really have a lot of sockets. They're smart, they work by placing a magnet inside a switch box, then installing drywall, and then a second magnet outside the drywall. find the 1st magnet and cut a hole around the crate. It doesn't always snap straight, which somewhat defeats the purpose as the tool is designed for precise cuts. Although it's probably part of the learning curve. And therein lies the rub of this article - when you're just making a few fixtures or sockets, it's hard to justify the expense and time required to tackle them. But this is not a tool for professionals. Be sure to practice on a piece of scrap metal first. In the end, I'm glad I'm using waffle lights instead of cans.
