2. 01Empowers the
Do-It-Yourselfer
Reasons EveryHandyman
Needs a Multi-Tool
A lot of do-it-yourselfers have already
discovered that the oscillating multi-tool is the
one power tool that allows them to ‘play with
the big boys’.
Since their invention in the 1960’s, oscillating multi-tools have been growing in popularity every year. It’s not
an exaggeration to say that this is the one tool that every handyman must have in his toolkit, because it’s a
tool that can seemingly do everything. In 2008, the original patent expired on the multi-tool, and there was an
instant rush by many power tool makers to get their version of the oscillating multi-tool on the market.
This fact alone speaks volumes about how useful this versatile tool has become since it was first made
available. Why is it such a must-have handyman tool? Here are a few reasons - and if you purchase one, you’ll
probably come up with your own list to add to these.
Even the occasional handyman can enjoy the
role of household maintenance master when
he has this one tool in his arsenal. Because it
can do so much - and do it with relative ease
- it turns even less experienced handymen into
household pros.
3. 02Task Versatility
An oscillating multi-tool has the capability of
using several different attachments, each of which
is ideally suited to a particular kind of task.
These attachments can be used for:
SANDING &
GRINDING
SCRAPING SAWING &
CUTTING
GROUT
REMOVAL
Even better - various specialty attachments allow
the multi-tool to work on many different kinds of
surfaces, and because there are so many different
attachment blades and accessories, the versatility
factor for the tool really mushrooms. Virtually
any job can be tackled and completed with ease,
precision, and accuracy.

Can Accomplish
Difficult Jobs
Able To Reach
Tight Corners
The multi-tool is not only capable of doing
many different kinds of jobs, it is capable of
doing jobs that used to be extremely difficult.
For instance, sawing off a rusted-on nut can
be a really difficult task because it’s so hard to
get at the nut for sawing - but a thin bi-metal
blade attached to the multi-tool makes the job
easy.
It is particularly adept at reaching into tight
corners and spaces where little room for
hand movement is available. Its side-to-side
oscillating action accomplishes the task without
the need for any kind of human hand action,
such as a back-and-forth sawing motion, and
that means it can get into places that are
barely wider than its blade.

Variable Speeds,

Work on Different
Surfaces
Not Dependent
on Power Cord
Most multi-tools have variable speed settings,
which allow them to be more precise in the task
of the moment. High speed settings give the
multi-tool more power to accomplish difficult
tasks, and lower oscillation rates allow it to be
more precise in the task at hand.
Many models of the multi-tool are available as
cordless tools which increases their usefulness
in tight spots and as a portable tool that can
go anywhere to get the job done.

Oscillation

Disturbs Arms Less
Recent Improvements
Make It Run Quieter
As mentioned above, once the patent expired a
whole slew of manufacturers began marketing
multi-tools - and the accessories to be used with
them. These accessories are often interchangeable
and need not be made by the actual manufacturer
of the multi-tool - so many other brands of
accessories can be used with the multi-tool you
already own.
Some multi-tools of the past would oscillate
(vibrate) so strongly that arms and hands would
become easily fatigued just by holding them,
especially for long-running tasks. In recent years,
this annoying flaw has been largely eliminated, so
that even at high speeds the oscillating tool does
not cause arm fatigue.
Another early drawback to multi-tools was the
loudness during operation, and this has also
been addressed by manufacturers in response to
consumer complaints. Most models now run much
more quietly, and do not require the ear protection
that they did in former times.

Seeing is believing
If all this makes the oscillating multi-tool sound a bit like the Super Tool of modern times - it just might be!
There are lots of power tools that can do a single job well - a drill for instance - but there just isn’t another tool
that can do so many jobs with the kind of power, precision, and sheer ease that an oscillating multi-tool can.
Already many skeptics have been won over just by trying it themselves. Seeing (and using) really is believing!
