RotoZip’s New RZ02: Down ‘n Simple Drywall
Tuesday, July 18th, 2006
RotoZip was founded on the idea of making drywall installation simpler, and indeed the first RotoZip tools were directed squarely at that purpose. Over the years RotoZip has expanded their line into numerous models targeted at more general purpose use with attachments and accessories for working with wood, tile, metal, and more in all sorts of manners. The new RZ02, however, returns to the company’s roots offering a basic package designed specifically for drywall.
It features a 5A 120V motor operating at 30,000 RPM as well as a very durable cord, a dust-resistant switch, and an improved shaft-lock design for easier bit changes. RotoZip will ship the RZ02 initially in two kits: the RZ02-1200, including the saw, soft band handle, a Tracing XBIT, a drywall XBIT, collets in 1/8, 1/4, and 5/32, and a wrench and the RZ02-1100 which adds the hard handle and additional tracing and drywall XBITs.
Street pricing starts around $70, and these are available from a variety of sources online and locally. Look for more information on the RotoZip line from us in the coming weeks.

As we’ve said before, we come from a long line of toolaholics, which means that our fathers want — wait for it — tools for Father’s Day. With that in mind, we’d like to remind you that Fathers day is almost upon us. (It’s next weekend. Don’t forget.)
