I can think of two things:
- control, which would depend on the user. I’m not particularly skilled at keeping a rotary cutter against a straightedge myself
- getting into an inside corner, but that’s just a matter of using another blade for that last bit
@AIMR Oof. I won’t say that 40 (or 25) is not COLD, because it is, but I will say that we have a lot of days without much wind at all AND dry heat gets all the attention, but dry cold is also a lot easier than wet cold. 25F here in Montana feels warmer than 40 in Portland often times.
I finished putting my lights up in the shop today! I also attached a top to a metal table base I was given which makes a good spot for my compound miter saw, at least for certain materials. I shoved off the stairs to the “greenhouse” which I use for storing some lumber, so I could get the door open and put some stuff away. WOO!
Then, I got to move inside and add some rigid foam insulation to a cutout in our cabinetry I had to make for the control board, etc. for our downdraft vent for the new stove installed in 2023. We were getting one heck of a draft through there, presumably the source being the hole cut in the floor for the vent itself. It was a bit tricky to get to through the drawer stack next to it, but I managed! The difference was immediately noticeable.

As of now, the foam is not attached to the surface, but it is pretty well stuck in there because of the stuff at the base. If it turns out it needs something, I’ll add it. I didn’t have to buy anything for this, which is a big win.
