5 star if u do 2 small things.
1. Wrap some tin foil around the bit just below the tip, as shown. This will greatly increase the temp at the tip.2. Use a tool file or screw driver top scrap the tip clean from any burnt rubber or oxidation. Do this as needed, fairly often usually.3. Don't forget to turn it off when not in use, the tin foil makes it heat up fast and it now glows red hot inside the foil. :)

Had higher hopes for this tool.
Say heat up for 10 minutes, 20 minutes later still not hot enough to cut or even melt rubber, after 30 minutes of heating and using like a saw i managed to face cut 1 lug on a dirtbike tire. Jig saw or saws all works way better had higher hopes for this tool.

Works pretty good, let it heat up
So I think I figured out the problem people are having with this tool. When using on a hard compound tire, no problems...but when using on a soft squishy knobby tire, it works very slowly. I saw a video where the guy went back and forth in a saw like motion, that is the fastest way to get it to cut. LET THE TOOL DO THE WORK, don't bear into it. Overall I'm happy.

Ok
It does not cut like the video shows. But it works, with alot of pressure.

Works like a champ!
After this thing warms up, it cuts pretty easily. I did make the mistake of putting it on a loooong extension cord and it took forever to warm up. Once I realized that, and put it on a shorter heavy duty cable, it heated up well. I cut up my knobby in about 1/2 hour. Can't wait to see how my cuts effect the traction.

Save your money, not as advertised
Sorry guys, this tool just sucks. This project does not work as advertised on soft or gummy tires. Tool does not get hot enough even after an hour. My wood burning tool gets hotter and actually penetrates the rubber. Tool took a lot of pressure pushing on it to even get partially thru a nob. Your hands will be sore after a few nobs. At the rate i was going it would have taken hours to do 1 tire. A new tire is cheaper than the tool and my time. Very disappointed in this product.

Works great
Used this tool on my knobby dirt bike tires. Definitely creates a new edge effortlessly.

This thing is KILLER!
I bought this item and it works great! Once you get the technique down boy howdy do you end up with a pile of tire cuttings! I've only done one tire so far so I can't vouch for it's longevity. However I see no reason why it won't last!
