Why the fuck you need one of them?!
Stud Wall, draw around the dry-line box and cut out with a padsaw
Brick / Block wall, draw around metal backbox, (drill a few holes in it if its brick) then chisel it out.

Takes a couple of minutes at the most

i fitted a new double socket last week, drew round the backbox with a pencil, then used a steak knife to cut out the plasterboard:o

worked though:thumbs:

wouldn't bother with that tbh. i can do it better by drawing around a back box and it will be a lot quicker also.
