  • A multi-tool will tackle a variety of DIY tasks, but it's also handy for putting the finishing touches on wood plugs. Chris Marshall shows you a quick trick for trimming them flush in a fraction of the time it takes with hand tools. Here's how.

    As an electrician that does strictly remodels this is an absolute essential tool. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx0vyBwjtx9GGOuiqUVT2sRoYqmDoNT_RI Being able to precision cut any material with a light weight tool is priceless.I upgraded to this Dewalt 20v from a competitor's 12v. The Dewalt 20v is just as light as the competitor's 12v. I am extremely pleased with the overall performance and battery life of this tool. As far as oscillators go, they just aren't very ergonomic tools. The dewalt oscillators have an offset handle that do make them somewhat more ergonomic than the competitors' oscillators.

    Chris, Great suggestion! I have had my Fein MultiMaster now for at least 8 years and I love it! As you mentioned in the vid, you don't use this tool often but when you do, it's a godsend to have it in your inventory! I have used it for cutting out light boxes in drywall, removing grout and tile, undercutting door frames for tile installation and a number of other odd projects. It's supe-great for getting in those tight, hard to reach spots. The one thing I haven't used it too much for is sanding. Your video has inspired me to do more. Thanks for sharing this!

    Bought a multitool about a week ago, not by Fein but a brand called Worx (type: WX 680 Sonicrafter). It's half the price of a Fein with compareable specs (costed me even less as I bought it during a promotion sale). It does a great job sawing, cutting etc. As for sanding... well, as with any multitool, it's doable and it maybe has the edge on bigger equipment when working on very mall projects but you certainly shouldn't rely on it to become your go-to sanding tool. The cool thing with the Worx is it has a special locking system that holds the accessories of most known brands such as Fein, Bosch, Makita, Dremel and many more. I'm not getting paid or whatever to write this but since this video looked and sounded a bit like an infomercial for Fein tools to me I thought I'd even out the field by adding my experience with another brand. I'm really curious about the brands and types of multitools you guys are using, what your experiences are and how you think they compare to, for instance, a Fein in terms of pricing and quality.
    Keep workin' it!

    I have a Bosh MX30 (it rocks) and I am currently using it to remove 20 year old paint and gunk from a wooden patio. You can use several different tools for this. Because there is old gunk (sap + primer) under the paint that loads up the paint removal sandpaper in a few minutes, I went a little more aggressive. I could use a scraper blade, but it doesn't work fast enough to for me. Instead, I am using a carbide delta rasp, originally meant for removing thinset, on face grain, and a hardwood saw blade on the side. The hardwood saw blade has fine teeth and works great here as a more aggressive scraper, parallel to the wood. The carbide rasp is very aggressive. Very. Be prepared for quick material removal and don't use it on any veneer. Since the rasp works much like a rock solid 40 sandpaper, there is some sanding to do after, but by then I am down to bare wood. I used the same multitool for it all, even taking a break to sand my front door before painting. Yay multitools!

  • @abrannan
    @abrannan 10 років тому +1

    He only used the one tool, but with two different attachments. Whether or not he was given a tool from Fein has nothing to do with it. He used the cut-off blade with a shim under it to protect the workpiece from unnecessary scratches, then switched to the sanding pad to bring the dowels flush to the surface. If he hadn't used the shim, then he'd have had to sand to below the surface to remove the scratches the cut-off blade made.

  • @abrannan
    @abrannan 11 років тому +1

    You mean like the first blade he used in the video? The one that, if you're not really careful with how level you hold the tool, will gouge the hell out of your workpiece? Which would be why he used a protective shim in the first place?

  • @DetLilleSmil

    The use of the shim to protect the work piece from being scratched by the blade is utterly pointless. Just cut the plugs flush and then sand out any marks.

      @TheSatyrblue 7 років тому

      That is why you use this with multiple grits of sand paper. That removes the scores from the last grit. If you start with 80 grit you would move up to your next grit and repeatedly move up in grit till you get the finish you want before you stain. An orbital sander would do the same thing. Simple wood working tip for finishing.

    Horrible demo. If the multitool doesn't come with a blade with one-sided tooth set like a flush trim saw, then it isn't the most efficient tool for the job. A flush trim saw is MUCH cheaper and leaves little if any to sand afterwards. I noticed you edited the video to cut out all the sanding required using the multitool. I guess... in a pinch.
