Has anyone bought one of these yet?

Looks neat. I want to use it for cutting veneer and up to 1/8" Bal Brch.

Comments.

Is that the purpose of it? I haven't seen this tool before.

Yes I bought one in Aug. I use it to cut cardboard, and thin wood. I like it. It self sharpens to boot. Tried to cut some carpet with rubber backing, but it bogged down on that.

Chase let us know just how good is it on the 1/8 bb plywood , this is something that may help me out if it's any good !!! Marshall

Wood Dog: How thick was the wood you cut? I want it for 1/8".

OK get ready for my very first tool review (requested by Marshall).

Save your money. For cardboard, paper, veneer, etc. it might be ok. For 1/8" BB it stalls out after cutting about 1/4". I took it back and got a refund.

Never tried it on veneer. For cross grain I like a razor blade and with he grain I use a veneer saw.

I like Skil tools but this one didn't live up to their hype or my expectations.

Hey.. if i lived in the U.S.A. I would buy this for quick cutting of thin woods boards etc..
even cuts ceramics/tiles etc.. costs twice as much here in the U.K...
