Very nice tool
I bought this hoping it would be a nice alternative to my cicular saw when cutting things 1-inch thick and less. Just used it for the first time on some 3/4" plywood and it did just what I had hoped. I have a few Rockwell tools (JawHorse and Sonicrafter) and all are solid quality tools. This is no exception. You can't cut 2x4s with it, but as long as you realize its limits (designed in), its a great addition to a workshop. I wish that the ratings would allow me to give this a 4 7/8 star rating because I have 2 comments... 1. I had to put a little bit of duct tape around the vacuum attachment because my vacuum's end was a bit bigger (1/16") than the attachment's outer diameter. To be fair to Rockwell, I don't know if this is the fault of my vacuum or the Versacut. 2. As much as I like the "plunge" design, it would be nice if this had a convenient means of locking down the blade to not require the "plunge". Neither of these issues were serious enough for me to even drop my star rating to 4.5. I'd recommend this to a friend without a doubt. One other thing... the last two tools I bought from Rockwell were in strong tool-bags rather than the typical molded plastic boxes. I love this! Much more useful 'cause I can throw other handtools in the bag as needed.
