Default New Dremel

Anyone used the Dremel Multi Max Oscillating
tool...similar to the Fein? Any feedback
Thanks

Dremel is not the only one making a clone of the Fein now that Fein's patent
has expired.

I got this one from Harbor Freight on Black Friday:
http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=65700

It's not the miracle machine that Fein's TV infomercial says the concept is,
but it does work.

The tool's claim to fame is it's oscillating blade. That said, I don't see
how the quality or reputation of the tool maker can much influence the worth
of the tool. All it does is shake the bit (blade?) back and forth (Duh!).

If you can be pleased with about 70% of the claims made on the Fein TV show,
go for the Dremel, the Harbor Freight model, or one of the other clones.
