It helped me get my feet wet and it works perfectly, but it's a good feeling at some point to learn to do it all manually. But out of all the toolkits, Wug's is probably the best.

You can find his XDA thread here.

I can do it manually with no problem, I have a lot of Android devices and experience, but I just don't have time to learn new ways, so I'm hoping this toolkit will save my time.

Whats new about unlocking the bootloader and installing supersu ? I get the convenience of toolkits, but for an experienced Android power user rootng a Nexus device is probably faster manually than downloading the toolkit :)

I just forgot it, to be honest. I'm not "creator", I'm "user", so I have to remember some steps. Anyway, toolkit worked great and all Nexus devices must have to be with unlocked bootloader. Now 95% of time was used to unlock it and backup my data. Rooting was only 5% of time.
