5.0 out of 5 stars Inexpensive low-tech way to cut drywall holes., May 25, 2004

This review is from: Goldblatt GB05141 Drywall Circle Cutter (Tools & Home Improvement)

I bought this simple tool to cut 5" and 6" holes in an already-installed drywall ceiling, and it did an acceptable job. What was not clear from the Amazon description, but was evident from the package instructions, is that the tool is intended to be used prior to drywall installation, where both sides of the sheetrock can be scored and the hole tapped out. That was not possible in my situation because the proximity of joists prevented complete rotation from the other side. Also, the tool, does not actually cut - rather a mini pizza-cutter wheel scores the surface. In my case, however, the tool scored the face surface deeply enough that a good drywall saw (for example Shark Corp 10-2206 from Amazon) easily followed the scored line to produce clean, perfectly round holes. This was a much cheaper solution than having to buy separate 5" and 6" holesaws, so I have no hesitation giving the product 5 stars.
