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. 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.
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 dewalt Hand tools 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 dewalt accessories 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.
The guide works well and allows users to set the depth of cut or height for accurate repeatability when making a series of cuts. Finally a tool company that gives you an accessory without us having to go track it down. dewalt Hand tools DEWALT provides a tool guide system with their multi-tool. As a fan and user of adult tool I have to say “well, it’s about time, but I’m not disappointed.” They far surpassed what I thought they were going to do.
DeWalt has been my choice in the electrical field for over twenty years and adding the oscillating tool was a bonus! Cutting outlet boxes out is so much easier because all you do is cut the box support from the nail, pull the box out with the wires and then remove the nails. Plunge cuts for cabinets when adding outlets in the island, a breeze.
