I work on a team building/repairing/refurbishing housing so we see Sheetrock work pretty frequently but not often enough to be pros. We have struggled to not waste material miscutting for electrical boxes by the measure-cut-out-before-hanging method. This tool solves that problem plus makes the hanging go much faster. Our team has used both zip tools and hand saws to do the cutouts and both work equally well. I also bought the Blind Mark tool from the same company so I have 5 targets. One thing about these products is that if you always use them to mark the boxes and then forget to do a cutout, just keeping up with the targets will alert you to a missed box. No worries, just run the pattern over the wall until the box is found, cut it out neatly as the others and move on. No plunging in the rock to find the missed box which for us usually results in a patch job around the box. We have used these tools for empty boxes and boxes with wiring already pulled ... as long as the wires can be pushed back into the box the targets will fit.
Only cons: no case like for the Blind Mark product and the package is a bear to get into with old hands. Small complaints for an otherwise good product.
With this product I can easily get within 1/8" of the edges of the box. It's only not perfect in the sense that sometimes when I went through right on the line I ended up hitting the edge of the box and had to move outward slightly. I'd rather it be off by being smaller than being too large though.
I wish I had thought of looking for a product like this sooner, it's totally worth the money with the time and hassle saved... just don't forget to put the piece in the box, I haven't done that... yet. I just made sure that the two pieces were always in a box, as soon as it came out of one it when straight into the next box needed so I didn't realize it was sitting on a ledge somewhere.
I have used many other methods; measure which takes time and needs practice to get it right the fist cut.
Marker or lipstick to mark the back of drywall, here you need to mark up your boxes, set the drywall up, take it down and then cut it and even then you are off because it does not sit flush.
This product is as billed; set the one portion in the electrical box, outlet, light whatever, set the drywall into place, set the other portion over the area of the first portion and they magnetically link. While the two portion are linked, you can trace the outline you need to cut and the cut is exact, the drywall stays in place to be hung and after you can take out the portion in the box.
Slick, easy to use, saves time and is a great little tool to keep around whether you work with drywall often or just ever so often.
Great!
I've cut at it with a multi tool and it survives. It's very essential to find tools that can survive your other tools.
It works on blue PVC boxes, white fiberglass boxes (thanks China and Corona for these) and steel boxes. It works in ceilings as long as you point your arrows in the right direction. I picked the backyard bc that's where the ice chest and beers were and I wouldn't forget that.
