[@rodpotts2666]

The best invention in tools in the last 20 years. I pull it out almost every day.

[@hfrt29]

just got a fein 500.always wanted this tool

[@keepagudz8756]

Fully Agreed

[@dmag85]

But do you use the tool?

[@davidlittle4948]

Recently bought an inexpensive corded oscillating tool for a series of projects...love it. It all started with a kitchen sink floor replacement and other than finding out how quickly I can go through blades it exceeded my expectations. Shortly after this we moved to siding replacement and repairs on the exterior of the house. I was salvaging and fitting hardy panel over existing cedar so I had some fitting cuts to make on the cedar...the multitool was great for cutting out the cedar trim and rotted ends. Heck, I often used it to cutoff nails I couldn’t safely pull. When hanging new carriage lights I sacrificed a couple of blades to cut small wiring access holes using the multitool. Definitely one of the smartest additions to my small arsenal of power tools. Thanks for the tips.

[@SpecificLove7]

Thanks for sharing your experience. You found some great ways to use it.

[@elizabethragone1901]

I just bought one today and I've never used one before. Thank you so much for the information. It's a huge help for beginners like me.

[@shang0h]

Great video and great shoutout to Project Farm. You guys are making the kind of content the internet was meant for. Thank you.

[@kikoman1647]

Great video, No BS just straight to the point. Job well done!

[@diytoptricks]

The tip about using an old blade and grinding it into a makeshift scraper is genius! It’s a great reminder to repurpose tools creatively, especially when you're in a pinch during a project. Excellent advice for DIY-ers looking to save time and money

[@123ewq4567]

I am a contractor and use this saw in place of a" back saw ", which is used for cutting trim and door casing near floor level. This is done a lot when installing flooring . A scrap piece of the flooring can be used as a gauge for height . Also if the piece you are cutting is loose and wants to vibrate just loosen the pressure and LET THE SAW DO THE WORK on its own . Very light pressure usually works great for faster cuts on everything.

[@SpecificLove7]

Thank you Bill. We appreciate the great tips.

[@andre1987eph]

Great tip

[@lindabaker1776]

Can you cut a small kitchen size carpet up to remove it

[@glasshalffull8625]

I was in a real jam as I had thicker tile installed and now could not remove the metal skirt on the dishwasher in order to lower the leveling legs and get the machine out. Ended up using an oscillator to cut the metal skirt. Not sure what tool would have done the job with such precision.

[@MrJawnyNumFive]

@@lindabaker1776 Hello, I'm surprised no one answered you. But I'm sure you got your answer too. In case for anyone else. Use a utility blade, if you have wood floors, especially original, take some pliers, pinch, pull up carpet, with a new blade, begin cutting, avoiding floor damage. Once the hole is big enough, you'll be able to hold carpet up behind the utility blade, but still, be careful. If the matting cushion is tough to pull up, use your multitool scrapper blade.

[@josemoreno3334]

I bought one not long a go. It's a very useful cutting tool. Thanks for showing me how reuse those old blades I kept in my junk box. Thank you again.

[@ambhouse]

Thank you for doing this video. I've recently discovered the joys of the multi-tool in doing work on our house. The scraper tool was fabulous for cutting carpet. (The blades with teeth would sometimes get bogged down on the pile.) This was such a back and knee saver since I had to cut the carpet in strips and bind in order for the trash people to pick up.

[@RichW240]

I also used my multitool to help remove the carpeting in our home. I would lift a section of carpeting from the floor and cut the carpet in 3 to 4 ft. wide strips, using a blade with teeth. (I didn't want to risk damaging the hardwood flooring below the carpet.) I rolled up the carpet and secured them with twine. Every week, I would place a few rolls into the garbage toter. It took a few months to get rid of all the rolls of carpet and foam underlayment.

[@caseynoland6981]

great video and very helpful. Normally I don't like videos this professionally done but you were thorough, friendly, clear and extremely helpful. Thank you.

[@G_Machine_Joe]

Love the video. 👍 For anyone thinking of buying an oscillating tool, stop thinking about it and go buy one! I bought one the day I started my kitchen renovation and it was immediately my favorite and MOST useful tool during the job. It saved tons of time and frustration, and made so many things that would have been a pain to accomplish easy and quick.

[@cprice1]

It's one of those tools that when you have a situation that's tough to fix, you're often very thankful for it. It's so versatile, and can go where other saws can't.

[@PIANOSTYLE100]

I believe I bought my kit at Harbor freight. If I remember right it is not an expensive brand name.

[@ManOfTheDerp]

Just bought one for sanding some door frames and cutting out nails, works way better than I expected.

[@tikaanipippin]

Things that this tool does that beat other tools: It can replace jig saws for long straight accurate cuts, especially on boards where jigsaw vertical vibrations make accuracy difficult, the horizontal multitool vibrations present no problems. It can cut floor boards on a bevel angle avoiding recessed brad nails, and cut tongue and groove boards so that the original boards may be lifted and replaced without splitting, especially useful for antique boards that have no modern size equivalent, replacing floorboard saws. It can perform partial depth cuts, instead of using chisels. Blades may be narrowed using angle grinders for specific jobs like morticing door fittings, squaring drill holes, or cutting recesses for flush fittings, such as hinges. You can glue fine grit abrasive sheets to old blades for honing cutting edges on various blades, or squaring screwdrivers, or removing rust from blade faces, or old grout from tiles being re-affixed. Plunge cutting can make holes or channels where your drill cannot go, at the back of cabinets, through joists, at the base of skirting boards, for routeing pipes, cables and flexes. If you have a problem without a solution, pick up your multitool and see what possibilities it may offer!

[@matthewbailey2013]

Question for you... I need to go through some 2×4 that termites got to, wondering how deep a plunge cut really goes on this thing. Looked at mini circulars, but still to bulky. For reference, replacing chaser boards on a bow window and some sub framing chewed up. Thinking I can cut it out. But I am cheap. Tool needs to work

[@tikaanipippin]

@@matthewbailey2013 it depends on the length of the blade you can get. I have seen videos of multitool saw blades extended by welding a section of a new blade to an old one, but there must be a limit, as the amplitude of the oscillation increases with distance from the blade clamp centre. I would use a reciprocating saw on window frames, generally, for added reach, or a pad saw if the material was soft enough, which can be improvised with a hacksaw blade and a handle. Having never encountered termite damage in the UK, I can imagine that it can be knocked out with a chisel and mallet, as fungal rot or woodworm damaged timber would be in my experience. Nowadays you see mini chain saws used to plunge cut holes in panels, and they must have depths in excess of that of a multitool. The next thing will be a handheld laser cutter!

[@mojopare8954]

[@tikaanipippin]

After inserting the dowels into the pocket holes, I used my multi-tool to sheer off the protruding dowels! Worked great and saved me about 30 minutes of hand-sawing.

[@louislandi938]

I’ve never used one but have seen contractors working with them. I’ll definitely get one soon. Thanks for explaining the blade selection.

Great timing! I just bought one of those yesterday. I knew/know it is versatile, but I didn't know all the different things it does. I love how you recycled the older dull blades.

[@SpecificLove7]

That's awesome, you should love it.

[@YesiPleb]

If you get some small saw files you can actually sharpen your blunt blades and make them sharp again. Just need to use a vise to hold the blade still while you slowly use the file to make the grooves deep again.

Tip from a female…Blades: the Ones that are painted, take clear nail polish and when it’s new paint a layer in the measurements… it will last longer, and with the nail polish starts to chip, just add another thin layer of clear polish!

[@susannebkvig4011]

I was really impressed by your idea of using sanding pads from your orbital sander with worn out edges. In my experience they do get worn out along the edge first. I have thrown out a lot, that could have been used like you suggest, and I am embarrassed I didn't think of that myself.

[@johnclowes3894]

Just in case you don’t know you can always re sharpen your saw blades with a small triangle file. But you’ll need a vice to hold the blade steady. You can also sharpen those scrapper blades with angle grinder. I say this because these blades are NOT cheap and even the more expensive ones wear out quickly.

[@SpecificLove7]

Thank you for the tips

[@lmcsquaredgreendale3223]

I agree on the sharpening but I sharpened one, the semi-circular blade, one too many times and it was cutting fine and the blade literally broke apart and one piece went flying off and I was lucky that no one was working alongside me. The blade was quite hot because I was pushing it too hard but I just had one more cut too make..... you know how it is I'm sure. Lesson learned.

[@beboploo]

or better still use a dremmel small cutter disk does the job as long you've a vice

[@skyhawaii5446]

Great video brother and a must see for anyone who uses a multi tool. I thought I had a few tricks, but I think you beat me by a few. Killer carpet cutter invention. I use my dull blades to cut old caulking and knock off paint chips. No need to grind down the saw teeth. Just run the blade on cement for a minute or so. The blade can be used on both sides and the tip to demo baseboards, trims etc. without busting up the drywall. The dull blade also works great for knocking off delaminating stucco and removing cement spills/splashes. You should do another video on the difference between a good multi tool and a bad one. The fine line for me is the the high sound that can be deafening and the vibration of the tool when used for prolonged periods of time that can actually cause bodily harm to ones bone joints. I have used Fein, Bosch, Dewalt, and Makita as a professional tradesman/painter. Each tool has its pros and cons and rest assured, blades are not cheap for anyone who is considering buying a multi tool. Thanks for the tips.

[@SpecificLove7]

It sounds like you would have a lot more experience making a video on the pros and cons of each than I would. I've only had experience with two brands. Thank you for the tips, they will definitely help others.

Purchased my first oscillating tool yesterday to do the trim around the wood work to aid in the installation of laminate flooring. I found the tool with a stiff scraper blade especially good for cutting the old carpet into strips that made them easy for me to carry. Sure beat the utility knife I had planned to use.

[@northcackalacky4694]

[@joeminpa6705]

My first attempt at using my oscillating multi tool made me think it was useless. I had to think about what was happening, and realized the quarter round I was cutting was only attached to the cabinet at the far end. This allowed the quarter round to vibrate with the blade, so instead of cutting through, it was like the multi tool and quarter round were performing a very fast tango. Once I secured the loose side of the quarter round, the blade cut surprisingly well. Thanks for the tips.

[@SpecificLove7]

We have definitely all been there, glad it worked out for you.

[@edivaldoarellano9117]

I bought one last week and I tried it for both cutting and sanding. I have to say that for standard and straight sanding, better to do it with a rotating sand tool, the oscillation sanding seems to be not as effective as the rotating one (removing old painting was much slower with the multi-tool), though it is true that for corners and hard-to-access zones, the multi-tool is a better option or the only one. For cutting heads of nails, screws or old tubes that are in-wall this is definitely the tool for it. You can easily remove them and they'll remain just at the same level as your wall. The strongest con of a multi-tool for me is the really high noise it produces. Nevertheless, I am definitely happy to have it, I think this is a must-to-have for remodelling, rebuilding projects.

If you need to access something behind sheetrock, you can often cut a hole carefully with the oscillating tool, then put the same piece of sheetrock back in, and either just screw it in so you can use it as a batch, or screw it in, then tape and mud.

I'm on my third model now. I started out with a corded Bosch diy model, but soon got tired of the cord and the screw to secure the blade. Went out and bought an 18V Bosch diy with quick release instead. When I needed it for a project this fall, I found out that it was limited to the basic Starlock blades, so I went out and bought a Bosch Pro model that will also take Starlock Plus. Starlock Max is restricted to the corded pro models it seems, at least on Bosch models. I am very happy with the one I got though, it made short work of that project ( Trimming the bottom of the face boards on my garden shed). :)

A tip: the wood blades can easily be re-sharpened with a triangular file. The file has a harder Rockwell rating than these blades. First level the blades a bit with a flat file and after that reprofile the teeth with a triangular file. (3 sided file). As for bi-metal, just buy new ones :)

Little bit of a tip: Whatever it is you are cutting, scraping, sanding or whatnot, make sure it's stiffened up and stationary when you're working on it with these tools. Nothing's gonna happen if the material you're working on oscillates with your attachment of choice.

[@SpecificLove7]

When I first saw (no pun intended) one of these I thought "What's the point?" it just seemed so specific like those single function kitchen appliances that just end up taking up space, and then I found myself in a situation at work where it was the only tool that could do the job well and I realised how versatile they could actually be. I bought one the next day

Thanks for the tips, I had never even heard of the power multi tool until I started DIY projects and building a collection of tools. This is next on my list, just got a deal on a couple of Rigid batteries with a free fixed base router from HD. Have been all about DeWalt for a while but Rigid makes solid tools, their tile wet saw has served me well.

Sounds like you got an awesome deal. Have fun with the new tools.
