Recently I asked for input on here for which oscilating multitool was best from your experience and got alot of good advice and responses, thank you all. I had a flooring project coming up so I finally pulled the trigger and bouget the Fein Multimaster manufacturer refurbished kit from CPO for $259 delivered. CPO did a good job and it was delivered promptly. Did my flooring project this past weekend and used it to undercut 6 doorways and several other cuts that no other saw would do and it performed flawlessly. It made the job go smoother and more enjoyable. Yes I know that replacement blades can get pricey, and some complained they didn't last long. I can say I used 2 different blades on this project, one more then the other, and both are still cutting just fine, I also followed advice given by several on here and did not force any cuts and let the tool do the work. The cuts were still made in a timely manner and with little/no strain on me. All in all good product(yea a bit pricey if bought new) but well worth it. Also CPO does excellent Job as well, will look at them for future purchases.

So that is my 2 cents worth, do with it what you may.

I've been thinking of one as well.

But I'm also weighing getting a sander with dust vac. Either a Fein or Festool, but I don't want to spend that much dough without using both first.

Woodcraft nearest Los Angeles is in Stanton which is quite drive even on a Sunday. If Vinko is in Los Angeles then maybe Eagle Tools right off San Fernando road or Rockler in Pasadena.

Long time lurker new to post. I love my multimaster. The blades are high, I have found blades for the bosch saw fit and are cheaper. Also i think dremel blades will fit also. I have tried Craftsman but need to make an adapter to make them fit proper. Thanks

I just noticed Anderson Plywood in Culver Sells this stuff.

I'm getting closer to getting something. Looking at the C-26 vac. and a 5" sander. Ultgar has been quite helpful and I might go with that combination and then get the delta sander (maybe a dedicated one instead of the Rotex 90 pictured in the video). It's something I've wanted, and I can see using it around home a lot, and even around work where a lot of things need to be repaired or refinished including windows. Not that it's a priority.
