That manly joy you get out of operating a chainsaw? Yeah, now in a handheld size! This thing is serious about hogging and hollowing out stumps. I've seen a lot of woodworkers posting images of live edges bowls with odd depths and shapes, wondering what skills or unprecedented lathe they had. Or, if they were completely doing them by hand with an adze, yet somehow selling them under $100 and NOT from overseas. Answer, this little guy. Pop him on an angle grinder and watch him go. Works great, HOWEVER...this sucker is dangerous. Make sure you're wearing a full face shield and a guarded grinder and take it slow. One odd angle or errant cut and it'll hop out of your piece. After 30 minutes or so of using it you'll become more confident and capable, but do not take this guy for granted. He'll save you a ton of time and give you a dremel on steroids, or wreck a bunch of wood and you if not careful.
