It's a sort of mini belt sander. Very useful for quick easing of things
where you're not too worried about accuracy. Like say fitting a socket box
into wood. Not a must have tool, but can be handy.

Ah, OK. Last time I had to do that I ended up using the sander drum on
the Dremel.

I have the B&D version of that. Very useful for easing out mortices for
door locks etc.

Right. So it would be something you use quite a bit?

Basically, I find it handy for anything wood related across the grain
where you can't get a decent stroke with a rasp. Or are too lazy. And
don't want to risk a decent chisel.

It's the B&D one I have too.

Not every day, it's one of those tools, like the multi master & clones,
that is a real life saver when you do need it.

I use it a lot on newel posts when decking. Kerf out the half lap with
circular saw, clean up & adjust with B&D Powerfile.

Cheaper than the Bosch version :-)

(I have the Black and Decker "PowerFile" version from several design changes
back, which is more like the Aldi one.)

Will those reciprocating saw blades fit my Ryobi? Are they all generic?
