    Nice work sir! Bought my oscillating tool for this specific job! Works great and leaves nice, clean cuts. Really enjoy your videos 👍

    I use a Dremel with metal cut off wheels looks like fourth of July, fun for the whole family

    I've done thousands... I like using a mini saws-all which only has a 1/2" stroke... I find the oscillating tool is apt to jump around and foul up the paint on the doorjamb

    hmm guess I should get one of those? I cut in my first door today and did it with a Dremel. Took a while.

    Are you using the carbide cutters? Any idea how many cuts that will do before it’s trashed?

    How did you fix the door frame after you nicked it with the cutting tool? You went past a little and hit the frame around. That has happened to me and I didn’t know how to fix it.
