6 MULTITOOL CUTTING MISTAKES! (How to Cut Straight With a Multitool...AVOID THESE COMMON ERRORS!)
Oscillating Multitools are one of the most useful tools for DIYers and remodelers, especially due to their cutting/sawing function. However, using a multitool can be tricky because of its unique shape. This short video from the Honest Carpenter will show you several Multitool tips and mistakes!
Multitools are awkward to use because of their straight-line shape. They're kind of like a flashlight, with a tubular handle that is also the motor housing. They take a little finesse to use, and a good system for cutting.
Mistake #1: Failure to brace your cutting position--Be sure to rest part of your hand, or wrist or arm on a stable surface, usually your cutting surface, before you initiate cutting. This will keep the multitool stable and help you make a clean cut.
Mistake #2: Failure to score a cut line--Before you just start plunging the blade, etch a fine kerf with the multitool, about 1/16" to 1/8" deep, all the way across your cut line. This will sever the top layers of wood, and give you a good line/groove to follow for the cut.
Mistake #3: Choosing the wrong blade--Check the tooth length on your multitool wood-cutting blade. Really long blade teeth are better for rough, aggressive, fast cuts. Finer teeth are better for slower, finer, more controlled cuts.
Mistake #4: Overdriving the cut--It's never a good idea to take too much material on one cut pass. This will often just bind the blade. Instead, focus on SWEEPING YOUR CUT LINE with the multitool blade. This will clear waste, and driving your cut slowly, with control.
Mistake #5: Cutting on Low Speeds--Cutting wood works better with high blade speeds. Variable speed triggers confuse this issue on multitools. For wood-cutting, rev to your max speed and keep the multitool saw pinned there the entire time.
Mistake #6: Using dull blades--This is kind of a universal rule, but especially true for multitools. Be sure your blades are sharp when cutting. Dull blades will bind and jam. Change blades often, if necessary.
Thanks for watching!
The Honest Carpenter - Jak na to + styl
What’s everyone’s preference. DeWalt multi or Milwaukee multi
Interested to hear responses here, Brian. I reeeeeally liked my basic toggle switch Bosch too. That thing ran so smooth!
Makita 😬
Hyper Tough it's the generic Wal-mart brand, but it's just as reliable, & all the blades come included.
Milwaukee...Hands Down
@@dy1an makita multitool is shockingly bad
I think I realized why I like this guy so much... he manages to condense complicated processes into an intuitive, conversational, never patronizing, lesson.
He would have made an amazing teacher.
Whether you've never touched this tool in your life, or you've used it 1000x, he just perfectly (in a few min) explained all the things to consider bf starting and fixes for every common problem.
Now I'm far from a pro, but I like to approach every problem/ new skill this way. Plan in advance, attempt to execute, but when complications inevitably arise EXAMINE WHY. Try to learn from the experience and minimize that error going forward. As long as you're always improving, you should end up in a good place ; )
Way to go Honest! Love all your content.
He is a teacher
I’ve been using a multi tool for years. Here are a few useful tips: If you need a precise straight line, use a blade with a curve(He showed one from diablo ). This prevent the chatter you get with a long straight blade. There are ones that look like a half circle to get tight to a wall/floor without cutting into it. Also you shouldn’t do a hard plunge as the video showed. A sweeping motion works best so the blade will not get excessively hot. I find this is one of the most valuable tool I have. Great video.
Yeah. Forget about those super wide blades. Those things are all over the place
What brand do you recommend for a hobbyist? Something nice and cheap
@@riffdex We bought our Multi-Tool from Harbor Freight - and it is fantastic. It’s corded, not battery powered. Has multi-speed, but like in the video, we always use on max. The half-moon blade is good on many surfaces - plastic, metal & wood.
I’m a flooring contractor that mainly install Tile and hardwoods. So I’m probably not the best person to ask about cheap blades. I use the Festool multi-tool. I like it best over Fien, Mikita, Dewalt(i’ve owned all in the past). Festool accept all the star lock style blades. I mainly buy Bosch blades. I love that most have a curve for cleaner cuts.
Whether you are a hobbyist or in the trade, the most important thing is using the correct type of blade for the job. Example: if you are using a wood blade and hit a nail, then your blade is toast. You should have used a bimetal blade. But if you need to cut harden screw then fien has a perfect blade.
Maybe for a hobbyist, I think imperial makes decent blades for the cheaper end of the scale.
@@riffdex Hardt multi tool from Walmart is a surprisingly good option
My dad passed and you make a great tool guru. Like your lists and delivery. As a journalist, I especially like your refusal to waste words!
Fantastic video! Short, to the point and packed full of pro tips. Thank you!
Dude - there are many people on CZcams with opinions and instructions, but not everyone makes and effective teacher or even good communicator. You are both of these. Thanks!
Just splurged on the Milwaukee M18 Fuel OMT. Only played with it a few minutes but can already tell it's going to be one of my favorite tools ever. Tons of uses for a DIY home reno. One nice feature of the Milwaukee is that it doesn't have a trigger. You just turn it on. So no cramped fingers ever. You can adjust the speed with a dial or rely on the "auto" setting to keep the speed right.
Fantastic as always. Love my multitool it’s almost endless uses. I’ve had absolutely terrible luck with the walls tools lately, and so has many other people I work with, but their multi tool is great.
OMGaw! I applied most of the tips you gave and... WOW! I got a straight edge, no rough edges, and it went 10X faster! Scoring before cutting made a HUGE difference! Thank you, thank you, thank you!! You rock!! 😊❤😊
Absolutely great video. I just got introduced to multi-tool cutting and these are terrific tips and things not to do. My first job was replacing a rotten piece of brick molding on my workshop door frame. Your video allowed me to replace just a foot of molding instead of the entire piece. Love your channel and all the "weekend warrior" tips and tricks.
Thanks Gary! I’m really glad they’re helpful 🙂
I picked one up a while ago and never really liked it but it turns out, like most things, it was 90% user error. This video was super helpful! I’m much more excited to use this tool on some upcoming projects! Thanks!
I always leave your videos an instant like the minute I start watching it. Mostly because I can tell you're a nice guy, and you always explain things well in a non-condescending manner thanks.
Thank you, Joel! I appreciate you watching and supporting! 😄
@@TheHonestCarpenter Thanks, I always love tinkering with tools and fixing and building things. I'm a retired teacher and I know that good teaching involves, interest and knowledge in the subject, patience, good explanation and making the content interesting. You got all those ingredients in your videos thanks again
The WHY do you leave???
@@toriless Probably means 'leaves a like' [thumbs up]
Most underrated usage is being able to lock the tool to always on as you cut. Not need to push the button for power. It automatically stays on! Great video!!
thanks, like the way you went into details with your explanations
Thanks for the advice sir, I got a multi tool for Christmas and I’ll try to implement these ideas.
Great tips, I will say that I think the the shallow pass back and forth technique is really only necessary when cutting through something that has another material behind it that you don't want to cut, (which is most of what the tool is good for admittedly) but if you're cutting all the way through something with air behind it (like cutting a rectangular hole on a wall for an outlet junction box) I like to score the cut line then plunge all the way through at one end and turn the saw at least 45 degrees so I can use the cutting edge and follow my line
I've been cutting with my multi tol for years and learnt loads from this. Thanks.
I bought a multi-tool and took it to my shop and start practicing with it. I made all 6 mistakes and figured them out. Watching this let me know I am no special kind of doofus. I must be like a lot of folks🙂 Thanks for posting it.
Thank you for the helpful tips. I like that you show the utility and techniqes in a very simple way.
I struggled a lot with my multi tool and learned I was making most of these mistakes. I applied what you said and it's made a huge difference. Thank you!
That’s awesome to hear, Sam! 😄
You have an educator's ability to describe not only what's true about a topic, but why it's true, leading to increased depth of understanding. Thank you for this video, and this channel.
Thanks so much, Aaron! I greatly appreciate the positive feedback 😄
Another tip that I use frequently is attaching the blade at a 90 degree angle to the tool for better control of the tool. Try it, it works! As usual, always great content!
Yes!!
Good tip, will try this next time
I do mine at a 45, have for years. Rarely have the blade sticking straight out
Nice, yeah I often set mine at 45. With materials like plywood it allows me to rest the tool smack down on the surface once a plunge is made, and then I just push and wiggle a little in order to keep going along the line I've drawn.
One of best advantages of the tool is the adjustable angle, no mention in the video… does this guy actually use one? Adjusting the angle allows you to use the head as the guide, and gives incredibly more control.
This was super helpful for me. Thank you so much!
Well. Talk about synchronicity. Im a librarian and will have to see about adding these to the library collection. They look like fun books. Honestly never thought to get a multi tool. 35 years of fixing stuff and have never used one.
Thank you, Science! I would love to see the books in libraries someday! Im working on approaching small publishers to do some construction-based books for kids as well. 🙂
I use one of these tools daily for my work in van conversion building just found your channel lately and I find it extremely helpful. Great content!
Thank you, Sean, that’s great to hear! 🙂
Thank you! I've been having issues with working my multi tool
Thank you very very much for the video. I am novice with the mooltitiools. I watch this video and learned hot to use it in the wood. Excellent video!!
I love your channel. Such good advice, so well provided. I'm pretty sure I was making all the mistakes with my multi-tool. And, I'm not sure why, but the fact that you also produce graphic novels makes me happy. You seem like such a nice fellow. Thanks!
Hey, thanks Mary Kay! I really appreciate you watching and supporting the channel! 😄
Thank you. This is super helpful to use newbies. I didn't know this tool existed a month ago. Thanks for making these videos.
What an awesome video. So well put together and informative. I learned a lot thank you and subscribed! :D
Good instructions for using the multitool. I recently bought the same model you show in the video and I like it a lot.
I just purchased a Worx 2.5 Amp AC Corded Multi Tool from Amazon (on sale today with Bag and 70 Piece Accessory kit) for $69.99 with a manufacturer's 3 year warranty. I probably will need more blades, so I ordered some from your link in this video and will begin a new bathroom reno project as soon as all of my tools arrive. Should be fun! Thanks for sharing your information with us.
Great video! I just bought one to do some trim work, never used one before. Trained just in time! Thanks!
These are some solid tips. I'm somewhat new to oscillating multitools so tips help. So far I'm a fan but I need more experience using them.
I've been a carpenter/woodworker for over 35 years, everything from new home construction, remodels, home improvements, cabinet shops, boats, fine art furniture, set building, and so on - I used a corded version of one of these things last year while in Georgia building a bar in a pals home. It blew my mind, I still have and am using tools I purchased 30 years ago (I still use the 7-1/4" Makita circular saw I bought in 1987) - I finally decided to start upgrading my tool to the Makita 18/36v system, amazing stuff. Makita has a subcompact line that are all black in color so I've purchased a couple of those tools including the multi tool and used it on a job for the first time last week, it's like a surgical tool with very little vibration at all. I'm super stoked - Even bought the dual battery 7-1/4" circular saw - SO nice to "cut the cord" FINALLY - The work goes by faster with a lot less aggravation from dealing with cords
I enjoy your videos, keep up the good work
We’ll said, Michael! I’ll have to check into the makita subcompacts!
I've got that exact tool and while I haven't needed to use it in a while 1 very useful thing that helped me get straight cuts, was to change the blade position so that it came off towards the corner rather than straight out the front. That way you also get more chip clear out.
Great tips as usual on Honest Carpenter! The multi-tool/oscillating cutter/plunge cutter is one of the most valuable tools for a remodeling/repair contractor. I use mine for so many things almost every day. I just wish replacement blades weren't so darn expensive.
I have been buying my blades from Amazon in bulk packages. I try to focus on the blade type I use the most and toss the others that come with the package into my bag. I have found I use those odd blades sometime within a year.
Great video. Very helpful info that I know to be true.
Well put. Thank you. You've saved me a whole year of learning from my own mistakes..
Thanks for watching, Dana! I try to make all the mistakes first on everyone else’s behalf 😆
Great video. I had a project that I needed to cut into a wall and I've been putting it off. I'm glad I put it off, I learned something today.
Best tool ever. I remodel homes and primarily use this and my drill.
So helpful! 🙌
nice vid. All this time of popping into the channel and I just not hear about the kids books. That will be a fantastic b-day gift for my little book worm. Thank you.
I love my multi-tool. Here are a couple of tips from my experience:
You can buy special anti-vibration gloves which are great when using bulky vibrating tools. I discovered them when I worked in the auto industry, as they are great at preventing pain and fatigue when working with a big impact for a long period of time. They also work great when using my multi-tool for a long period of time too.
I find that in a lot of cases the round blades do not bind as much as the straight ones. They are really useful for certain types of cuts.
The sanding block is great too. The triangle tip on them allows you to get into corners where an orbital sander can't get to.
The quick change feature on the newer tools is great too, and being able to put any of the blades or sanding block at a 90 degree gives you some extra flexibility in tighter spaces too.
No way!!!! You're a nerd like me? No wonder I immediately felt I could trust you! Thanks for the content. I appreciate being shown the best method for getting the job done but more importantly the reasons for doing it that way and possible consequences for not doing it that way.
I was a little worried about installing the blade after reading a couple of reviews. But it was amazingly easy. Took about 1 minute. Works great czcams.com/users/postUgkxjpBI8OOeUXib_iT7UomCrQ-uauwZJ62c . Cuts easily and is perfect for pocket cuts I needed to make for replacing some old deck boards.
Great video, as always! As a newbie, I find them very helpful.
One of the most helpful videos I have seen in a long time
I bought the original the only one made at the time Fein corded 20 years ago before all others copied it. You didn’t show it but I could use that thing with the blade sticking out sideways and it helped a lot because you could get a better grip on it working on different confined space that straight was not an option. You are definitely correct about the quality and price I’ll buy the cheap ones for wood, but for metal and tile only The expensive ones will work plus you could get sanding attachments for wood and for rugged surfaces. Thanks for the CZcams I’ve been following you for several year’s
It’s weird; I’m reading through the comments and no one is mentioning how awesome the oscillating m-t is as a sander. I’m a handyman and use my dewalt omt damn near everyday. Thanks as always THC
Beat me to it. I bought the sanding block attachment for this reason and sand paper when I picked up the multi tool at the store.
I use it as a grinder them sander but with a Dremel not these.
Use my M12 Fuel as a sander as much as a saw. Super handy and effective.
@@jamesgoens3531 Ditto.
I use it as a corner cat sander along my random orbit sander. I used to have the small sanding shoe attachment but ever since I got the 3.5" attachment I'm not looking back.
Great video! I received a multi tool as part of a Ryobi package of tools and was wondering what it was for. It and my driver are the only tools i haven't yet used. Glad i saw this video! Are always, your explanations are concise and easy to understand. Thanks!
P. S. I have serious workshop envy! 😉 I only have a table outside and have to run power cords to the house, but I manage. I need to build a little overhang so i can work in inclement weather, but I'm not sure where to start..
I purchased Milwaukee m18 multi tool mindlessly without knowing what to do. your blog is very helpful to me. Lots of love from Pakistan.🇵🇰
Never used one until I saw your last video. Used it on my remodel and it was a game changer. Thanks!
Another video that makes me glad I subscribed months ago. This is one of the most useful sites on CZcams for me.
Brilliant tutorial thank you
Thanks for this - another really helpful video. Would you consider doing one on the different types of blades and their applications please? Thanks again 👍
Thanks for a great education on the multi tool.
As a renovation tool is use the carbide metal blades for everything. There is always a surprise nail in the way. These tools are great for siding work. I have also used it as a carving tool when fitting pieces or cleaning up rot. I flip it over and draw it over the surface.
The only difference between a multi-tool and a rifle is that you don't need to hold your breath at the point of pulling the trigger !
Glad you said about using a utility knife for the first score, that's exactly what I do. Sometimes if possible I clamp an old straight edge to start the cut. Can't remember where from but I bought a ruck of blades from a Japanese company and they are so good and were a bit more expensive but so much cheaper in the long run. I think your tutorial on this subject was absolutely spot on, as usual. You are indeed a good presenter with well grounded knowledge and experience. I wish you well. Cheers.
Amazing video I have a multi tool and I’m learning out to use it this video helped me a lot I was making all the mistakes … now I will use the tool more effectively thank you honest carpenter
Thank you, I learned a lot.
Thank you for educating me. Well done, as always. Cheers.
Thank you for the info and super helpful!
Great video as always! I've been shopping around for a multitool but haven't worked with one often before so I wasn't sure what to look for. This gave me some valuable tips not only for buying but obviously also for when I finally start using my own! God bless!
I did the research and test drove all three Milwaukee 18v(don’t get 12v the battery falls out)
Dewalt (like the video)
Fein (corded)
The Milwaukee has the same power as a corded fein, and the auto speed option does the thinking for me, having dewalts trigger might sounds good but I was always second guessing myself therefore I wasn’t concentrating on accuracy , think of trigger option it like a pen you always have to pump for ink ….nah …just supply the continuous ink while I work on motion in my handwriting
@@paulpham9216 Thanks a lot! I'm from South Africa so we have a VERY nice Bosch option available here 400W GOP40-30. It's corded but has an exceptional reputation. Pricey, though.
This was so helpful, thank you!
super awesome tips, wished I had seen these before I did my project.
REALLY learning alot, really like your channel
I have to say that I had never heard of the multi tool until I saw your video a few years ago. The battery system I use introduced the tool to the range and so I bought one, along with a very large set of various blades (fortunately). My first attempt at using it was...not good; I immediately bent the blade through using it at too slow a speed and slowly lowering the blade onto the wood. It juddered as it made contact and bent the blade.
Two years or so later and it has become indispensable in my kit. It does the cuts that nothing else can do. It trims otherwise inaccessible areas, like the bottoms of doors without removing the doors, removing rotten parts to refit with new timber, without stripping the whole thing apart, and so on.
I always now use it at full speed because low speeds cause it to grab and bind (when sawing). I also have scraper blades but have never used them, yet. I am a carpenter and tend to only use it for wood and PVC, though I also have metal cutting blades but I doubt I will ever use it for that. Come to think of it, the metal cutting blades would probably work well on PVC.
Thanks for the video, I was making quite a few of those mistakes. I ordered some blades from your link.
That’s very helpful video, thank you. It explained some of my challenges I had
Good stuff as always! Thanks for posting
I made every one of those mistakes replacing portions of boards on a porch. I finally got the hang of it but not with out sacrificing some boards. Thanks for all the tips !!
Ah, doing the same now, and making the same mistakes !
Did I mention that I really like the neatness and organization of your shop?
Thanks Martha! I’m glad to finally have an organized shop/studio 🙂
@@TheHonestCarpenter I learned the importance of organizing the tools when I worked in a bike shop. Time is money.
I also noticed that 🤔👍ITS EASIER AND MORE PRODUCTIVE 🤗
This is going to help me a lot when I replace sections of hardwood floor.
great video, I just bought one for the first time because we bought a fridge too big for the cabinet. I shaved a half inch off with a semi circular blade and used the battery as a guide under the lip! just like a router
I'm an old man nearing retirement age and have very little knowledge of power tools. Your very smooth and informative presentation was a joy to watch, I'm a new subscriber!
Thank you, Mark! I’m working on an online course for my website (currently being rebuilt) that will explain everything to know about the 20 most important power tools. It should be live in July! 🙂
I was trying to think how to discribe the "GUIDE BLOCK" metheod to you when you said it yourself! One of my favourite DeWalt tools! CHEERS from Canadian Westcoast!
All good points. I actually tell new people to score that line first before going like you said, but unless I need to make a square cut, I always make a back bevel… and you described that at the end of the video… right as I was writing this. 😊
Thanks Morgan! I was determined to wedge that tactic in there. I used it all the time on trim interruptions! 😁
Great video as always! I love my multi-tool. I used the plunge cut ability to remove a rotted soffit on my house. I simple cut out the rotted area with a straight plunge cut from good wood to good wood and used a PVC board (another tip from this channel!!!) to fill in the gap. A little paint and it looks like new, no rot, and the PVC will outlast the rest of those boards! P.S. My 6 year old daughter loves "One Hot Spark" so far. We are 2/3 through it and read a chapter per night before she goes to bed. She already wants the next book! :)
That’s awesome, Josh!! I’m super pumped to hear the repair went well…and also that she’s enjoying book 1! I really appreciate you supporting the channel in so many ways-thanks for writing in to let me know this! 😄
I've got a Fein corded and a DeWalt XR. They're 2 of the most useful tools in my shop.
Thanks for the pro tips!
Thanks for the great tips - and ordered a bunch of those blades.
Very helpful thank you!
Thanks for sharing!
I love this tool! My 2nd favorite, period. I make straight and curvy cuts with it and it's the only simple option many times for a carpenter.
I agree, malta!
It can take some finesse for this tool for sure. One of the most common uses for me has been for cutting casings and door jams when installing new flooring. Just use a scrap piece of the new floor as the guide block. Good luck with the book sales. They look great!
Thanks Regular Guy! That’s one of the best uses for it-replaced the terrible old jamb cutter!
@@TheHonestCarpenter It’s also really good for cutting into drywall for adding new electrical boxes, etc.
@@TheHonestCarpenter If you have tons of frames to undercut, a saw is really the way to go because of the speed and cost of oscillating tool blades. However, when I've got a couple frames I go right for the oscillating tool
Great video. I now know the mistakes we make when we cut our block for pinewood derby. Could you please make a video on how to use the multi tool for cutting a pinewood Derby wood block?
Can't wait to get into woodworking. My wife and I move into our first single family home in 29 days. I have few tools and have some woodworking to learn. Some wood rot that needs replacing. All I have so far is a drill and a dream.
Two tips:
Gloves dampen vibrations and make it so much easier to control and work with, and
Blades can be hand sharpened with a triangular file, saving tons of money and wasted time.
Thank you! This is exactly what I needed. Appreciate it.
Thanks for watching, Amy! 😄
Thanks. Good advice
Definitely checking out your books!
Good video! I think your #2 mistake is only partly right. I have at times found it to work well to get started and plunge in deeply in one side of the cut, then tilt the saw/blade and begin tracking the line, cutting full depth with the blade embedded and being guided by the existing cut kerf...sort of like having a guide block. Works especially well on softer materials like moldings, drywall or thinner soft woods/plywoods, where you can still provide some measure of twisting to adapt to drift.
Great job, very interesting and informative.
Thanks for that Ethan, most helpful
You’re welcome, Val! 🙂
Had no idea that this dude wrote kids books. It's cool to learn that people are multi-talented.
Thank you, oogrooq! I’m hoping to do some construction-related books for kids too, if I can find a good publishing partner 🙂
I know. I loved him in Cobra Kai
Multi-toolented one might say...
Subscribed, great video , 👍
Thanks Ethan. I don't have a need for this tool but I have seen it in use for specific jobs and it works well. I am going to have to find a project where I need one so I can justify to my wife why I bought it!
They’re awesome, David! And even a budget model will get you really far 🙂
David…for 51yrs .. I have found out that it’s easier to get forgiveness than permission 👩🦰🤗
MAKING YOUR JOB EASIER AND SAFER just get the tools you need a little at a time 💚💚💚
Great 👍 recommendations 👌 I had to learn the hard when this tool first came out. 😊
Mine was invaluable for upgrading the electrical in my house. I made a template out of a scrap piece of paneling to help guide it for cutting rectangular holes in my plaster and lath walls for new switches and receptacles.
And that stuff really dulls the blades quick, so I am glad I grabbed a cheap variety pack of blades on amazon.
I burned through a few.
