PLASTERBOARD?????

why not?? cut a socket or light switch opening with it,

i got a rotozip many years ago for xmas, advertised as a great way to cut (wobbly) holes in plasterboard,

to be honest i just use a stanley knife and a metal ruler to cut socket holes in plasterboard, but some people like to use a power tool for absolutely everything as it gives them something to blame when they c*ck the job up :)

The 1400 household items drawer thing has done wonderful service here for years. It is always going in and out of my door clutched by a happy neighbour, in search of a hook, clip, washer etc.

I use my jigsaw with cut down blade - same as I use for floorboards.

Plasterdust is nasty stuff, very abrasive. After the stanley knife incident I now use a stanley saw blade rather than a cutting blade.

I have one of those, but a knife body isn't ideal as a saw handle. I found a short padsaw in one of the sheds which is better.

The bastards stole my idea - "DrawerFullaCrap", designed for all first-time buyers. I see they've missed the essentials though - no half-used ball of string or mysterious button badges, unused condoms, cue chalk, or old tap washers, to name but a few.
