What wrong with just using a ko box like normal? :stuart:

 

[davesparks]

As much as the OP makes no sense at all I think I actually know what he's talking about!

I think it's a part of the armed box cutting tool set where you have a big round drill to cut most of the material then a square kango bit to finish it off.

It wouldn't be hard to make replacement for the bit you've lost, just get a bit of mild steel bar, drill holes in the right places and tap the hole in the middle and fit a bolt.

Its part of my arneg kit, if doing a whole wall into block this makes the job a lot quicker, one man drills and chops the square, the guide spaces the plug holes, my mate then fits and screws the boxes in place, grommets and drops cables, other wise its drill down hold up a box mark the holes drill them, then next box, wearing tiring and slow, trust me i'v timed it, its a waste of the second man as he hangs about waiting,

even grinder and cold chisel is quicker, i dont know where my bolster is i just end up using a cold chisel instead either by hand or in sds

 

[Leesparkykent]

I find them ok, I would rather use one than a grinder for cutting a box out neatly.

if it is before plaster does it matter if there are a couple lines?

if im adding another socket in ill use cold chisel by hand or woodchisel depending on the brick

these tings are OK for cutting into weetabix blocks, but find something that's proper built, it's like crapping into the wind in a gale.

Hammer an bolster with plenty of guts behind it normally works for me. hee hee.

fine if you need to cut through into next door. scutch is far better.
