Disston E0215000 Blu-Mol RemGrit Collapsible Hole Saw Accessories Dust Bowl, for Installing Recessed Lights and Works With All Hole Saws

This worked perfect. I used it with my 6 inch hole saw and not a spec of dust came out.

Amazing. So simple yet achieves so much. Not new to recessed lighting. I have done a few before and blamed the circular saw blades for poor performance and bad holes. Little did I realize that its not the saw blades but the dust poring all over that would discourage me from continuing with the saw blades and switching to a drywall saw. Now I had a dust bowl with the Kobalt saw as well but that flimsy plastic is no match for this one. With the two washers (costing about 40 cents each, Lowes part number 63449 lubricated with pb blaster or wd40), a garabage can next to you to empty the dust each time you pull out and a pack of baby wipes to clear the haze from the silicone so you can see where you are centering is all that is needed to make nice clean holes.Even with this, I was not so confident to make a hole in one shot as I could not trust the blades. So I would pull out at least a couple times for each hole and on each pull out I would clear out the dust with wet wipes so I could see where I was placing the hole saw. End of day I would wash off the bowl with water and wipe down with a dry wipe so its like new for the next day.I used this for both 4" and 6" holes with the Kobalt 6" hole saw and the 4" Milwaukee hole saws both in plaster as well as in drywall with equally good results. I always start with the drill in reverse to get the initial marking and then put in in forward and slowly increase the pull on the trigger without pulling too hard and apply only gently pressure. If you do pull too hard or drill at high speed it could easily get jammed and twist your hand. Drilling at slow speed does take time - about 10 minutes per hole but its clean neat and painless. A garbage can nearby to empty the dust prevents secondary spills from the bowl which you always have to watch out for.

Wow. This thing is a game changer. I’m not sure it’s wonderboard but all the “Sheetrock” in our house is about an inch thick and is very very annoying to cut through. Create so much dust and literally kills multi tool bits within mins. Because of that, when putting in led can lights it’s a royal pain to the point we haven’t completed all the fixtures we would like because of all the mess. Enter this guy. The arbor hole was bigger than my 3/8 arbor, which is a touch annoying so it didn’t fit perfectly but otherwise it worked flawlessly. Saved so much time in cleanup. Very quick to get in and get out. Soooo happy!

This is a must-have when installing new lights in existing residence. Used correctly, it catches all the sheetrock dust and collects it at the bottom of the bowl. It fit my Dewalt drill adequately, but I admit it does make precision drilling above your head a little more challenging. Regular users probably have a trade-trick for aligning the drill bit to your mark with the product, but for me, this somewhat obscured my ability to see and align the drill. Overall, it worked well and I would recommend. Those who live with you and do the cleaning will thank you for using it!

i ordered for drilling about (40) 2-1/8" diameter holes overhead on top of a ladder. This tool caught 99% of the dust and wood chips. It cut 3/4" thick wood with no problems at all. i used an electric drill with a second handle to keep it stable, and not a single drill bit broke. the transparent bowl allows placement of the drill bit very close to the marked target. after a few holes, i just bent the side down to place the drill bit accurately on the mark for best positioning. total game changer if you are doing overhead drilling. If i never use it again, it was worth the price to keep the dust and splinters out of my face, eyes, and clothes. This speeds up the job significantly not having to evade the dust. the clean up was essentially zero, except for the box all the dust was dumped into.

Will never not have one of these again. Cutting lots of ceiling light holes for a kitchen project and can't believe how well this performed compared to others I have tried. Just be careful bringing it down so you don't spill the dust everywhere.

This worked perfectly to keep the dust and mess off of the floor.
