I have seen several of the InfoMercials about the Fein Multimaster
tool lately. It looks like it would be great for a lot of woodworking
jobs but I am wondering how it would be for working on sheet metal and
cutting Aluminum or other soft metals? Have any of you ever used it in
any kind of metal project?

I can say for sure that they are awesome at cutting a straight line on installed
drywall.

One of our former members here, Pete Albrecht, uses one to make patch panels
for Porsches (his specialty), overlapping the panels and using the fairly
narrow kerf of the Multimaster carbide saw to cut both panels at once,
preparatory to MIG welding them together. With his encouragement, I bought
one to use for a variety of jobs (not counting cutting sheet metal) and I've
been very pleased with it.

Their blades are Hellish expensive, and even the metal cutting kind
don't stand up. It's a decent detail sander if you get the variable
speed unit - good for starting fires otherwise.
