My aging fleet of cordless tools are running on last generation, monstrous Ni-Cad batteries that I couldn’t swap into the tool. The next task I tried was to cut a large drywall opening for my in wall closet shelving project. For this cut, I used a blade I already had in inventory.
The quality seems equal to any others I have tried, and the bases are universal, and should fit on any brand of tool. I bought Dremel’s Multi-Max 6300 (superseded by the Multi-Max MM30) to diminish the misery of sanding the interior of my bright-finished lapstrake Whitehall. Bosch, Dremel, Fein, Hitachi, Porter Cable, and Rockwell all manufacture oscillating multi-tools. You may find one of them that is a worthwhile addition in your shop. If you’ve enjoyed using Japanese handsaws, there are multi-tool blades with teeth cut in the same way; they’re well suited for working with hardwoods. Please allow business days to produce and ship your item, as each product is custom made and decorated on a per-order basis.
It might be one of those tools I have for years and years, but I’m not too hopeful it will hold up that long. Sounds like the motor is working really hard while cutting. With the Dremel I feel a slight bit of buzz in the tool, and the motion is almost entirely directed to whatever accessory is attached to it. dewalt accessories It doesn’t have all of the features that the DeWalt 315 does. There is no light, no variable-speed trigger, and no quick-release system for the blades; it has an on-off switch and a dial for varying the speed. The Dremel’s wider angle also makes for more aggressive sanding; the DeWalt may do finer work.
After using a corded oscillating tool for years with no light and a bolt on blade, I got to use one of these that a friend had. Already owning other 20volt Dewalt tools, batteries and a charger made it a great choice. It is also well balanced and much quieter than my old corded model.
That kit was $99 on BF last year at Lowe’s, I believe it was $99 bare tool at HD for BF…maybe the HD kit came with a 1.3 Ah battery. I know Lowe’s had the better deal b/c that’s where I bought dewalt Hand tools mine. I haven’t seen a quiet oscillating tool, but in my experience Fein has fewer vibrations. i have used this and this is among the nicest oscillating tools if you don’t count Fein.
The problem is the guide prohibits me from burying the blade and getting a full blade depth of cut on some cutting applications. I would love for DEWALT to figure out a way to allow users to keep the guide on the tool but not be in the way of full blade depth cuts. I bought this as I wasn’t able to find the blades for the Master Mechanic I have. Even though I had to purchase a blade for cutting concrete siding, it worked flawlessly.
With lots of folks in the game now, many more blades are available. I like the idea of being able to easily sharpen cutting blades. I’ve done it with a triangular file, which is tedious. My Dremel Multi-Max has proven useful for jobs around the house and with my little fleet of boats.
I loved the concept, but I did have issues with the tool itself. Blade changes were a pain and I had to periodically re-tighten them the with an allen wrench. The tool was loud and sent a lot of vibration up my arm. I decided to replace it because it got really hot under extended use,feel the heat through work gloves hot. Still, I got a decent life span from the tool, considering the price.
Meanwhile, the bright LED light on the tool illuminates dark work spaces. Power the DCS355B with Dewalt 20V MAX lithium-ion battery models such as DCB230, DCB206, and DCB205 .
