I'm curious if anyone has used one of those new Roto-zip or similar tools for sign fabrication. They look pretty cool for uses in sign foam, MDO ect. Seems light they could do a lot of the work of a hand router with more control. Any feedback is appreciated.

We use ours quite a bit for HDU. PVC tends to get a little melted and nasty, but can be cleaned up. We have used it for MDO also, but it can burn it with the wrong bit.
Well worth the price.

GREAT for doing fancy stuff in redwood and cedar!

Thanks for the reply guys. I thought it might make a nice tool for signmaking. I'll pick one up.

I haven't used mine for a while but it's good for HDU. Get the Dewalt version. Rotozips are all plastic and it's not. I have the Dewalt. No wrench needed to change bits either.
