5 NEED to BUY Attachments for your Oscillating Multi-Tool

[@johnrodebaugh7120]

I really like this Guy and the way He presents the Subject Matter. No Wasted time with music or introduction of his Videos. Right to the point and covers the information with nothing silly. Doesn’t waste time at All. Excellent!!!!

[@skipanardoross6805]

Same here.

[@chrisjohn2415]

I like how you can take accountability for your mistakes and not blame the tools. Good reviews.

[@actionjksn]

For the one shaped like a clothing iron you can take the large velcro disks and trace the shape and cut your own with scissors. Make sure you cut them slightly larger than the iron shaped piece, so that your velcro tool doesn't get damaged while using it. You can find larger 6+ inch disks on sale. The triangle shaped sandpaper is often more expensive. You can get quite a few triangle pieces out of one good-sized disc if you lay it out carefully.

[@ferrumignis]

Don't use good scissors, because they won't be good afterwards!

[@BenNawrath]

I refinished a set of wheels for my car, and the contour sanders were invaluable in the process!

[@SpecificLove7]

Great to know it can be used on wheels, thank you

[@BenNawrath]

@@SpecificLove7 my plan was to repaint them anyway, so I was sanding down scuffs in the powder coat, that sort of thing.

[@lw7967]

I love my oscillating tool and these attachments look like a few more toys I need in my arsenal. Thank you for all your informative videos. I have a Chicago tool from Harbor Freight I bought over 10 years ago. ($19 back then!) Still works great! AND....I can use a lot of different brand attachments. A must have tool!

[@SpecificLove7]

That is great to know, thank you very much.

[@bjjthaiboxing]

If you have a Chicago tool that last more than a month, consider yourself one of the lucky ones.

[@bjjthaiboxing]

[@1988dgs]

Don’t forget the tool oscillates so the electrical box cutter was spot on, the ends of the long sides move sideways, it’s how the tool works

[@twopoolpeople]

Thanks for another To-The-Point video without music!!!!

[@mcburcke]

The Imperial branded blades and attachments are really well made, and they have some creative types of cutting tools. I started using Imperial and have really had good success with them.

[@JustinShaedo]

I really appreciate this review. Mostly because it showed for me personally there are better tools eg: Jigsaw over the jab-saw. Gluing sandpaper onto worn-out cutting blades instead of the sanding attachment (use dowel to get the rounded shapes) - and much much cheaper! Respect on the interesting demo!

[@peterfitzpatrick7032]

Justin, I glued on some velcro onto some old worn-out blades, cut up some sanding pads & it worked great !! 😎👍🍺☘

[@JustinShaedo]

@@peterfitzpatrick7032 Respect, that's a nifty upgrade, I gotta try that!

Well I know for a fact these attachments will fit my multi-tool since I have exactly the same one you have. Excellent video and no, I have not heard of any of those attachments. Many thanks!

[@skipanardoross6805]

I got a really good deal on a kit that included shears. I have cut flashing with it but what I like best about it is cutting cloth in to shop rags. If you're someone that does that, you'll appreciate what quick work it makes of it.

[@nelsonfernandez7473]

Great video, i love how you keep your tools on the. Wall ,so neat 👌

[@SpecificLove7]

Thank you very much Nelson

[@markmiller6817]

The Dremel contour sanding kit looks good . Thanks !

[@mongomay1]

If you have any jobs with special width plunge cuts, take one of your normal width blades, mark the sides and grind it down to the width or shape you need, keep cooling it in water as you grind to keep blade from getting too hot. Even a thin cut-off wheel on a die grinder will work, then dress the edges with a file or sanding block. Do not worry about electrical covers, over sized plates are made for just about everything nowadays. Thanks for sharing, don't let your thoughts lock you into a box when you have a difficult situation...

[@stephenlukyn2138]

The 3/8 blade also works very good for pumpkin carving especially for children

[@7StrokeRoll]

I didn't have any interest in an oscillating tool, having never used one before. I've always used a Dremel rotary tool with a flexible shaft for most detail cutting/sanding and a Rotozip spiral saw for drywall tasks. Last summer I replaced my worn out treated lumber deck with composite decking. There were a lot of cuts and notches that needed to be made. My wife suggested that I look at an oscillating tool since she had used one while working as a set designer. What a game-changer! Went with the Milwaukee M18 Fuel brushless variable speed model (Milwaukee is the cordless tool platform I committed to) and have been nothing but impressed with how useful and flexible an oscillating tool can be. Looking forward to trying some of these blades and attachments!

[@paparoysworkshop]

I know what you mean. Once you have one, you wonder how you ever did without it.

[@jeffwhitney3369]

The sheetrock outlet box cutters are awesome! Gonna go get one right away

[@junkyarddawgs9956]

Hook blade for cutting shingles. Works great on cutting the overhangs

[@BobMuir100]

Loved it like most never seen them before and as usual they are are all sold out!! Bob England

[@brettbarager9101]

Re: the drywall attachments, you should have demonstrated the cuts on a vertical wall. Other than holes for lights, most cuts will be on a vertical wall. Even the circular hole demonstration should have been done overhead to show how the tool works in a practical application. I really liked the contour sanding attachments! I will be getting that fir sure!

[@Dronerangerspro]

Fantastic! There goes my next paycheck 😮

[@paparoysworkshop]

Regarding the narrow blade (tip #4). I just cut my wider blades down to whatever size I want. That way, I always have the exact size I need.

[@adamwilks]

Can’t believe I haven’t thought of that… right, where’s my angle grinder. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@jurikristjouw]

@@adamwilks same... eyeopener indeed

[@grand73am]

I didn't know about the contour sander, so thanks! Amazon doesn't have them, but I found them on eBay today, and at a very reasonable price with free shipping. Should make sanding the exterior window frames trim on my house much easier.

[@brodriguez11000]

5:42 came as part of a kit with half-moon blades for ease of long runs in drywall. They're handy when installing locks. There's another blade I got for removing old caulk along windows.

[@Handyman247llc]

Excellent review of useful products, I already had two of them and they work as expected. Imperial Blades does make excellent blades, but not all the attachments you showed. Again Thank you for making this video it will definitely open new possibilities with Multi-tool use.

[@garysobczak9931]

Thanks for another very helpful video!

[@repetemyname842]

Buy a small Craftsman shop vac and use it to run with tools like this, especially while cutting drywall. Works great for flooring repairs and other trim jobs or fix-its that you dont want to spend a lot of clean up time on. The small shop vacs have a smaller diameter hose so its a lot handier than a full size vac. Also put a bag filter over your paper OEM filter, use a rubber band at the top to keep the cloth in place and you will extend the life of your shop vac. It does require more frequent filter cleaning but all you have to do is shake the cloth filter into a trash can or better yet outside at the dumpster, or stick your hand into a trash bag and shake it with the bag closed.

[@SteveH-TN]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and this video 👍💡

[@Tom-x3m9g]

Nice to know, I will buy a couple. Thanks.

[@alandaters8547]

I just got my first multitool (a Craftsman V20). The specific need was to cut 4 slots in some aluminum angle so that I could run a stainless steel worm drive hose clamp through them. The 3/8 wood/metal blade (bimetal) worked great, once I learned that the work must be solidly clamped down. The alternative was drilling lots of little holes and using a tiny file to connect them- too tedious!

[@peterfitzpatrick7032]

Alan...spraying a bit of WD40 or even just plain paraffin/diesel/kero makes for much easier drilling, cutting & tapping aluminium.. 😎👍☘🍺

[@joelcurtis3363]

I would add that a carbide blade for cutting heavy screws and metal is awesome

[@gregl2249]

Had no idea these attachments were sold 😊

[@matthewhoffman9242]

The electrical box blades are going to make the top and bottom a little bit wider based on where the blade pivots , thats not your fault, its the mechanics of the tool. Looked like a very clean cut

[@stevedarnell8444]

The little narrow blade might be good for making mortises.

After seeing this and how a reciprocating saw has been used as a spray paint can shaker I can't help but wonder what a great job an oscillating tool would do with the right fabricated attachment

[@fernandochavez4312]

Very cool, I’ve not seen any of these.

[@aaronallgrunn7845]

Thanks for the video. I don't think it's user error at all. The tool only moves side to side. The top and bottom work well as a saw. The sides are sweeping across the material. I have been very curious about these box cutters, thanks for the demo

[@richardc6269]

Great video!! 👍✌

[@Petzlglyph]

would have been nice to see if a cut in electrical box (and of different types) actually fit in the cut out and if additional modifications were necessary to fit the box.

[@Digidoc316]

I note that you used a cover plate to check the single gang hole. Would it not have been better to check with a metal box and a wing box since they are what will be inserted into the hole you cut?

[@roberthardy2013]

Mark the cuts then score the surface with a knife before cutting out,the blade follows the knife cut for a neater finish.

[@SpecificLove7]

Great tip, thank you Robert

There's an adapter for the two major blade attachment styles. Can't say for sure that it will work in both directions, but it allows me to use every blade I've ever purchased.

I like the dremel sanding adapter. I need that , IF I can find 1000 and 2000 grit paper. I have some aluminum tubing I need to shine up, and this would work great.

[@A6Legit]

2:48 does anyone make skinny blades that could be used for curves? Kinda like a jigsaw blade but for the OMT.

[@S_Mendez_28]

Great display of accessories. The contour sanding set would definitely come in handy for me. Are there any other options for purchasing it; as the Amazon link states 'currently unavailable'. Thanks for sharing..

[@benbunce2576]

You should check out the multitool blade sharpener, would’ve been a good addition to this video

[@eagerlawncare3700]

So will it cut with the box nailed in

[@jar145022]

Show does the drywall tool work with drywall on ship lack walls?

[@msk3905]

I considered buying the electrical box cutter but passed because of storing it and I can cut a pretty accurate hole with a regular blade but that second cutter is going in my bag.

[@joesiart8425]

The Dremel contour sander sure looks useful however they have discontinued production. Would you have an alternate that you could suggest?

[@SpecificLove7]

Wow, I did not know they did that. Sorry, it is the only one I've seen with that design.

[@gf88888]

what is a short small sized multitool for tight spaces, about 20 cm ?

[@doozerakapuckfutin]

Great idea thank you sir .

[@peterfitzpatrick7032]

Yeah... like a lotta people here, I love my multi-tool & am always looking for ways to expand its usage... I wonder tho... on the bigger attachments like the outlet cutters ... does the extra weight have a negative effect on the wear profile of the machines... gotta think the extra mass isn't too good for them... 🤔

[@SpecificLove7]

That is a very good question to think about

[@JohnHallgren]

When I looked up the really narrow blade, it was basically $7. Amazon showed me a alternate of 10 blades for $16 that may not be having a name brand on them probably, but for that price, why not?

[@SpecificLove7]

Definitely save the money on the larger quantity. I just wanted to link to the one I use.

[@JohnHallgren]

@@SpecificLove7 understandable, but even if alternative generics last half as long per blade, it’s still cheaper buying more for less than $2 each.

[@amberhale8511]

Headed to the link to buy the contour sanding kit and its sold out. :(

[@greenspiraldragon]

They also make a 4 in one drywall tool.

[@HWPcville]

I have an idea for a drywall cutting blade (unless one exists already). When cutting drywall there could be times when there's fiberglass insulation with paper backing that I don't want to cut (or electric wires/pipes/etc) on the back side. A blade that will only cut 1/2 deep would be great. The blade could have a guard welded on top that prevents it from going any deeper than the distance from the teeth to the guard. Does this type blade exist? If not feel free to pitch it to blade manufacturers.

[@kendexter]

with a sealed box can it be used as a super/ultrasonic cleaner ?

[@johnstarkie9948]

Try it, and let us know.

[@kendexter]

@@johnstarkie9948 it did work, weld on. better than any vibrator

[@alohaIslandersLuau]

So cool!

[@Dronerangerspro]

Only bummer is many items said no longer available?

[@debi7039]

Those are some neat attachments. They definitely can come in handy. I have 2 oscillating tools. But I have problems with the blade staying on the tool itself. The blade is held in by a bolt that is cranked down with an Allan wrench. It works for a few minutes & then the vibration makes the bolt loosen up & the cutting piece falls off no matter how much it's been tightened. Can I ask if you might have any suggestions or ideas that might help fix this?

[@SpecificLove7]

Sorry but I have not worked with that type of oscillating tool so I am not sure how to fix it.

[@1dariansdad]

The hex head cap screw should also have a crown washer with it. The crown "pushes" back against the screw to eliminate walk-out.

[@roberthooper9316]

Unfortunately, the Dremel contour sanding kit is discontinued...

[@diyopedia4709]

I mostly use mine to sand in corners I thought I would use it to notch out base boards I currently use a dewalt triangle sander attachment but I will need to get those one

[@theoriginalchefboyoboy6025]

the sanding attachments are definitely drool-worthy - probably good idea to get a corner shaped piece of thin, durable plastic to guard the wood inside the corner so you don't mar it...

[@SpecificLove7]

That is a very good point, thank you for reminding us

[@sleepymoose1]

Unfortunately these sanding attachments are made of cheap metal and break after a couple of hours of use

[@cobuck4007]

How was that user error with the box hole cutter? It seemed like you used it as well as anyone could.

[@SpecificLove7]

Just figured I could make it a little better with practice

[@xSchattenfluchx]

@@SpecificLove7 there will always be some waviness simply from how the blade oscillates. Probably works best on lower oscillation angle multitools.

[@redskies0004]

I so very badly wanted to see if you could slip a single gang box through the electrical box hole with out some extra cutting. Or even a remodel box, those suckers are a little extra thiccc

[@Solid_Jackson]

I’d prob test dry wall on a vertically rather than horizontal

[@bob19611000]

#1 is way to specialized and doesn't seem practical (cost wise) unless you are doing production work especially when #2 can generally do the same thing but would have other uses beyond cutting a rectangular hole in drywall. Other use for #2? I've spatchcock a super large turkey with my OMT, I think this would make that much easier; assuming the teeth were up to the challenge.

[@steveswann8448]

And of course, Amazon is out of stock or item is unavailable on the two I was going to order.

[@scoop4363]

18JUL2022 - Did the first tool size the hole for the BOX? The hole is for the box, not the cover.

[@fire-works]

I think it would take me longer to change the attachments then it would to do the job

[@dotanberger1025]

Friendly suggestion: if you make a cut and see you have a user error, make the cut again and mention that this tool requires some practice. It'd be better to see that the tools are actually able to make a good job, after all the tool might actually be bad and it's not really a user error...
