Have purchased the multi master recently. Expensive...... but what a quality bit of kit this is. The 5 metre cable is great too.
I'm sure i will getlots of use out of this bit of kit.

You tend to find if you look after it, it will do you favours time and time again, but the blades are thin and can wear away quickly.

I heard about a guy making his own blades once though.

Tysfoot is selling 1 m8 for £99 on e-bay. Its worth it.

I bought a Bosch due to the price of the bits for the Fein because I use it all the time. My opinion is forget the Bosch because the Fein is 10 x the tool. It's the old adage you get what you pay for. I flogged the Bosch and I am back with the Fein for good.

yes i got one today and it looks like a real quality tool apart from the blades which look like something fisher price would make. the blades look like they will only last for a couple of times and thay are expensive for replacements.

Have you bought the star attachment for it?

The most important thing with the Fein is to allow the machine to do the work. So many people go at it like a bull in a china shop. Let the machine work for you and the blades and attachments will last a lot longer

The blades are much cheaper in multiple packs by the way.
