Is anyone using a Proxxon (or other) ultrasonic cutter?

I've watched a few video reviews and am kind of on the fence. It seems like a nice tool for very precise cuts, but a little fussy for larger part removal. When I see the reviewers moving the entire tool back and forth as they try to force the cut, it tells me it is probably painfully slow.

I'm kind of wondering how it might do for scribing panel lines. A tool that will follow a guide with little or no pressure has some appeal as long as it is well controlled.

Looking forward to hearing about your experiences.

I've been using an ultrasonic knife from US-Gadget for about 12 years .

I wouldn't use it for scribing panel lines -- too hard to control the depth of the cut , cuts too fast and will cut right thru any scribing tape with ease .
