[Rhodes22-list] Stereo or no stereo

[John Lock]

FYI - last summer I borrowed a RotoZip tool from a friend to cut a  
hole for mounting my GPS and depth finder.  This tool uses cutting  
bits that are more like a drill bit.  I was amazed at how quickly and  
accurately this cut out a 1.5" hole for my wire runs thru the  
bulkhead.  Way better than a jigsaw for cutting circles or irregular  
holes.  It's very easy to control and if you have a pencil outline to  
follow you can make a clean, accurate cut even handholding it.  And it  
works much better in tight spaces.  Check it out at http://www.rotozip.com/

Cheers!
