Fein Multimaster strengths and weaknesses

[Tim Brennan]

I just spent the afternoon working with a multimaster for the first time. I was repairing an old window which was in a bad way. At some point in the past one of the tenons had rotten so the window was being held together crooked and with rock hard putty and nails.

I cut out the bad pieces and made a new joint (not sure if has a name). I'm on a time limit so the mm was a wonderful piece of kit to have to speed things up. The accuracy is really impressive and at this rate I could end up becoming a half decent dentist. After all there's nothing a multimaster can't do.

I have the dust extraction kit but no instructions on how to assemble the many pieces. I'll figure it out sooner or later.

I use the triangle bosch sanding pad with a piece of sand paper cut from the center of a used porter cable 7800 sanding pad to sand the corners of drywall. I hold the Festool vacuum hose under to collect the dust. Oneday I will break down and buy the Festool drywall sander, my Porter cable is almost dead.
