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!
