Probably old hat to everybody here, but I recently discovered the
scraper blade for a reciprocating saw.

You put the blade in just like a saw blade and the Sawsall turns into
a power scraper. In my case, it was just the thing for removing
stick-on tile that had a VERY aggressive glue.

You can even sharpen the blade with a grinder or file as needed.

The only downside is the occasional kick-back.

Blades are available at the box stores for less than ten bucks.




In the words of Horatio Caine, "I did not know that".


I think horatio would have said;
"And that . . ." puts on glasses "is why I carry a sawbuck in my
wallet."

I think some writer must hate him to make him say such stupid crap
week after week.

never need one.g]
