Rotozip is one brand, Dremel makes one also. Basically a high speed saw with the profile of a drillbit. You can set any depth up to 1 inch. Looks like an absolute godsend for plunging "main cuts" in those low-relief carvings...wouldn't push on delicate cuts above it and try to "pop" them off like a chisel does. That combined with a set of big 3/4 inch burrs looks like the way to go as far as automation...Does anyone use one and do they work or just load and burn like so many of these dremel type tools? (that's what has kept me away from them).
