You can buy a detail sander
for £10.

Possibly, but nothing of any quality and certainly not like the
Multimaster in operation.

£25 gets you a good Ryobi.

No such thing.


There is such a thing as Ryobi do make one.


I meant the use of the words "good" and "Ryobi" in the same sentence.
"Above average" would be more accurate.


Matt, the label whore spaketh again.

Do you actually have a Multimaster?


No. need as a few other cheaper alternative does what it does, and even
more.

have you even used one?


Nope, but sen a demo. Its functionality is the point and there are

cheaper
ways of achievement what it does with a variety of tools. This is DIY,

not
the waste your money news group.


So no to both questions.


But yes to knowing what it can do. I don't have a Shuttle, but I know what
that does as well.

DIY does not necessarily equate to doing things on the cheap.


Yep.

It is perfectly reasonable to use professional quality tools for DIY
purposes if the user wishes to do so,


Yep.

finds the tools better to use
and can produce a better outcome.


Produce a better outcome? Other cheaper ways of doing that for a DIYer.
