Dont have a use for it at the moment.

I have a Fein mains and an Aldi cordless. Sadly, they don't use the
same blades. They are invaluable for some things. For example I
recently fitted a hard wood floor over an existing one - and didn't
want those horrid borders. Taking off the skirting to go underneath
that was easy enough - but round the door frames not. So I used the
multi-tool to cut into the frames then chiselled out a groove. Looks
perfect.


I`ll stick it on my xmas list the although I better get a small job
lined up to prove it was needed :-)
What is it with women that any power tool thats electric is deemed to be
one and the same, according to her I have 5 circular saws (bench,
circular,chop saw,angle grinder and wet tile cutter) and I dont need
another one! And she is convinced I only buy another spanner because
its shinier than the one I have at home.

Can the multi tool you're looking at be used to polish spanners?

If so, excuse sorted!


I was going to suggest a *completely* different application. Silicone
would probably be involved.
