If you've ever installed downlights, extractor fans or speakers, etc in ceiling Gib then you'll know what a b*tch of a job it is. The dust goes in your eyes, in your hair, and all over the Mrs holding the ladder.
Make the pain go away... This circle hole cutter has a bowl to catch all the dust (it's also known as a 'bowl cutter'). The spring pushes the bowl against the surface to make a good seal and the seal on the rim protects your paint-work. The bearing in the centre allows smooth and accurate cutting.
The twin-blade system allows much better balance, control, and safety than single-blade models which tend to rip, skip and jam.
The circle hole cutter can be used without the bowl if you have other projects where falling dust won't be a problem (i.e. making speaker boxes, plywood wheels for wooden toys, etc.).

NOTES
^ To obtain the maximum hole cutting diameter the blade holders need to be re-mounted on the crossbar so the blades are on the outside. If using the carbide-tipped blades they will also need to be flipped around so they are facing the right direction for cutting.
DANGER!
Tighten all screws and secure the work properly. Wear protective eyewear, dust protection, and appropriate safety gear.
