The Wen 6307 weights a bit over 2 lbs and its grip is just 2" in diameter. It's easy to work with.

A nice review of a little known but very useful tool.There is nothing quite like it and at such a low price it is worth having in your toolbox.
I have had a Black and Decker version for some years and it has been invaluable. Mine does not have the dust collection attachment so the Wen one is superior.
I like that, another tool that you may only use once a year, but could pull you out of a jam. It is something that I might not buy but a good present to ask for from our daughter, she never knows what to buy for birthdays and holidays. It is right up there with the Dremel tool and Vise-Grips, two tools that pull me out of a lot of jams.
Interesting tool review…modest price but with unique capabilities, I should think.
