I owned this for over a year before actually using it, I finally used it a few weeks ago and WOW !!! Most useful tool I’ve owned, love it !!! Great vid !!!
FYI... the 'spare parts' are actually for attaching non-standard attachments.
Thanks Kris , much appreciated 👍
Looks like a good choice. Project Farm reviewed a bunch of multi-tools, and this DeWalt ranked in the top 3 in his tests. A Milwaukee ranked higher, but it cost twice as much.
Purchased a Milwaukee unit 3 -4 years ago. It was well used finishing my camp. Great for cutting vinyl siding, cutting door stop & trim in place, for snap-Loc flooring. As you showed just awesome handy tool. Another great vid, keep them coming Steve
Hi Les
I must say it's such a multi tool for so many uses from sanding to cutting to scrapping . 👍
I also love that tool. It has multiple uses. I recently used that tool to remove grout from a tile wall. This is a must for any home shop for sure.
Hi Jim
So far Jim this rig is doing stuff never designed for :) I'm tearing stuff apart like crazy 😅😅
37 years in the trades .dont know how we got along without it.
👍
The tool you don’t need but wouldn’t want to do without 😁
Hi Dave it's exactly like wives 😀
Indeed! Good comment!
I have heard that it was invented back in 1967 for cutting plaster casts by doctors. It was then adapted to a multi tool by the company, the patent ran out 25 yrs later in the early 90s and everyone and their dog was selling one. I have the same tool and it is great but I just don't do that much renovation work anymore. Like you I sure could have used the heck out of one 40 yrs ago.
Yes exactly 40 years ago . I think I use it for stuff it was never intended for it seems 😅😅
These have been used for years in the medical industry, mainly for cutting off plaster casts & cutting bone
Craziest thing I’ve ever heard !
We always say “what would we do without this thing”
This tool is a great "all rounder" tool to have in your arsenal. For people who either do the odd renovations in their house or contractors that are doing bigger jobs and need something on the spot, that is quick, versatile and something that is smaller than sawzall or what have you... It's really once you have it that you realize you could have saved so much time having one on job sites years before.
Well said Joey 👍
As an electrician, I cut 2x4s ect on the regular with this. Why? Because jigsaws and sawzalls leave a horrible edge while also being much more prone to hitting wires behind the wall.
👍
It’s a pretty slick tool for sure Steve! I can think of some fun uses for it. Awesome review Buddy!
Hi Doug
Yes its a keeper forsure.
@PinetreeLine Just think! You could get rid of your Silky and just use this! You "saw" how it goes through wood 😂
Lol great job steve, i have had a old crapy tire one and when i first moved here and i have used it for so much stuff, i like how good of a job it does on flush cutting door trim on the ground if you do tile and need it cut. I used flush cut saw but the oscillating saw is great. You need to use ear plugs with mine but love it. I have a old video on my phone of a battery one i have from Canadian tire i was going to do on the battery one it.
They all work well but the cordless is so handy without a cord . Cheers bud 👍
Thanks Steve - I do have times where I could use a cutter like this. I also currently have DW batteries I could use so this is some good honest review info. Cheers
Hi Ed
It is a specific speciality tool it seems we all could have used in the past 😅😅
You got spoilt rotten with that adaptor, the long sharp blade is for removing silicone and sealants. There was a long standing pattern in place for this tool. I have put cheap corded versions of these tools in practice, they have shown be resilient and reliable. The one you own has been rated as one of the best. Great tool for renovating and restoration. Homes, boats....
LOL @ 16:14! 😆 That made me chuckle!
I would kinda echo ‘ HuntingFarmer’s sentiments, regarding one of these tools. But when you need one, it is great to have one!
I believe that Fein created this tool, For the specific purpose of cutting off casts on a patient, without tearing their skin up! I had to look it up for the date, and the Internet says 1967. I have had my electric Bosch for about 5 years now, and it has been a tremendous help. Ya gotta wear eye and especially EAR Protection! My Bosch is deafening! In fact, I used it this weekend, to cut the end of a nail off, where it had missed the joist, and might rub on some PEX I had going down below the floor. It was up in a soffit/duct chase, and nothing else would work. I used a metal blade, and it was cut in like three seconds.
The Dewalt is a really good model, and I would probably own that, if I didn’t get the Bosch. I did pick up a cordless Bosch model, that was a deal of the Day at Lowe’s. At least Bosch puts a nice long cord on the electric one.
Stay safe and Healthy! 👍✌🇨🇦🇺🇸
Glad to make your day a better one. Cheers George 👍
Great demo Steve, that multi tool cut thru anything like hot butter
Hi Lloyd
It's a keeper and being used a lot for all kinds of stuff .
pretty slick , i wouldnt have a use for it , but i can see its potental. good vid , thanks
Hi Greg
This tool has become one of my favorites for all the things it was never designed for 😅 Thanks 👍
When I bought the Ryobi one I bought it because I thought of all the times in the past it would have made my life easier. I haven't used it at all since buying it lol. I know it'll get used eventually, but not yet. It was also under a hundred bucks and I dunno if you've noticed or not, but I'm a bit of a Ryobi fan. That fastening system on the DeWalt is great. I like the Makita grinders disc lock system too
Bruce I use mine all the time but not for stuff it was designed for :)
Good morning Steve! I have cordless tools but don't use them much. I will be working on my peg boards today. Loads nice and easy. Nice features. I haven't seen videos on this tool. deck screw, lol.
4 deg. C this morning . Good day for some inside work 👍
@@SteveRobReviews Just re-woke up. Raining and nice and cool. Just let a baby possum out of a cage.
@@PAPATexas So you have a new pet 😅😅
I resurfaced my 18x40 deck. Had about about 300 or so screws strip or head snap off trying to get out. This is the best and only tool I can think of that will cut through between the deck board and the joist and cut the screw flush with the joist. So yes they make fairly easy work of deck screws if you have the right blades. If you can pull the board leaving the screw behind, the angle grinder cuts it much faster and I would use that, but the multi tool is more precise.
That's a great idea for the tool. 👍
I borrowed my nephew's once to cut an opening for an outlet and thought about getting one for myself but had to justify would I be using it much. Well I ended up picking up a Dewalt cordless with the adjustable speeds. I ended up using it for some projects I didn't plan on. One was I needed to replace some boards on my patio stairs and if I didn't have this tool I would of had to remove some good boards in order to get at some rotted ones. With this tool I just cut away around where the rotted board was nailed down and then got my prybar in between the cut and pried the board out.
Another project was to replace some portions of siding and I used the tool to do some final cutting where the bad siding overlapped the good siding and also I had to cut around some trim board I didn't want to removed all while on a ladder.
Third project was I got some new exterior light fixtures but the bases were longer than my old old fixtures that fit on my lap siding. Since these were longer they over lapped the next one leaving a gap. I couldn't really find any mounting blocks that would work so I ended up making a filler piece and I used this tool to cut and shape 3 filler pieces that contoured to the fixture base and painted them to match my siding and it looks professional.
H/D often has this tool packaged and priced at a good deal vs just buying the tool bare or with just a battery. Pay attention though if you plan on getting one of these Dewalts because they have several models.
👍
THAT'S A GREAT TOOL ROB, GREAT REVIEW AND VIDEO ,
Thanks Jose 👍
@@SteveRobReviews YOU'RE VERY WELCOME BROTHER !
Great review 👍 have one and love it,but don’t have all the blades thanks for the Amazon tip.
Hi Joe
Yes absolutely amazon has a lot of selection at a great price. Thanks 👍
oops I hit enter, lol. I like the take grout out one. I've had to deal with the transition too. wow, she's a fast worker.
Extra fast :)
I’m not buying one but my Son has one that I can borough and I’m sure it would be a pleasure for him to lend it to me. I can think of one place where I could have use this tool in the past but I didn’t know it existed was on the old farm house I was doing the porch outside and had to cut boards in very close quarters and with a mini saw I could only get to about a quarter inch on a angle....this would have bin a shoe in for that job.....Good review Steve......CHEERS
Hi Gator
It's a tool most will never need untill they need it for that one spot HAHAHA
Purchased one over a year ago and I never go to one of my kids houses to do any repair without it.
Hi Rick
It's so handy for so many things besides cutting wood . I'm using it on pvc , plastic and as a scraper it's a hand saver :)
Hang on here! Are you telling me the next generation of house framers should not show up on the job with one of these! 🤣
All kidding aside I have renovated my entire house and that tool would have been real handy to have!
Thanks Steve✌
Hi Marc
I use this thing all the time for stuff it was never designed for but overall it's much safer than what I was using before and I still have all my fingers 😅😅
I use it for hard to reach places that other tools cant reach I dont cut 2x6 ! For nails I use a Sawzul or grinder.
My wife heard mine and she wants to know how to use it😂 I told her it depends what she has in mind😂🎉
Yea they got me today 🎯only 100 bucks at Home Depot and I cut drywall all day everyday 🤦🏾♂️🤣
👍
That knife looking blade looks like a good choice for the Zombie Apocalypse…….lol. Cheers
😅🤣👍
I bought it because I love Dewalt, I’ve done jobs without it yes. But getting old I want easier to do a job.
Me too Eric , this does make many jobs easier 👍
12:30 Don't think thats spare parts, my manual says thats a washer and adaptor nut used for attaching accessories
Thanks 👍
ya spare parts are for accessories and other makers of blades? its pretty sweet!
👍
The atomic version is very similar.
I bought same one just cut 1/8 metal dowel inside of a engine a blue print
I buy harbor freight carbid blades use citing oil works mint
Mine never seen wood lol
😅
My problem is that I never want to get rid of my old tools even though I buy new ones. I still keep and repair all my old
ones which I hardly use. I now have so many, they take up too much space but I love them so much I don't want to get
rid of any. I am now 71 and very frail and some are too heavy for me to use. I need to downsize but still use tools nearly
every single day and still buy new ones. Is there any hope for me?
Join the club its perfectly normal bud 👍
WOW -- you must be my twin brother -- LOL!
I have 50 years of tools collected, and have some of my dads tools from the farm -- (3/4 drive sockets and related items)!
I agree not something everyone needs . but do have some jobs it makes it easier .
Hi Terry
It's one of them tools most will not need but it's nice to have a friend with one to borrow 😅
👍
It's a tool that will get you out of a jamb.
It's suse is . Cheers 👍
How's she goin'? Those are 'slick' for sure. I have an old corded one and I think the battery operated one would be a lot better. Take care!!!
Hi Mike
Its a tool you never thought you would use it till you get one and use it a lot :)
🤣 so funny sir I just one today
Cheer Miguel 👍
These are so annoyingly loud on full speed.
I agree , it's got a high pitched screech so I wear hearing protection to drown it out.
I'm from North Dakota. You must live close by, my friend. : D Thanks!
Real close but I'm on the Canadian side of the border. LOL
