Discovered a NEW USE for the Oscillating Multi-tool

The Oscillating Multi-tool is a great tool to have. This is an underused tool that all diy people should know about. After using this tool, I thought of a new blade. So after a quick search, I could not find anything like it. And then I invented it.

This is exactly what I've been doing for a while, except that I just used my old Oral-B electric toothbrush. When i used up all the replacement heads, I went online and found a bulk pack of chinese knockoffs for dirt cheap. As for extra tips for the video, you can save even more money by simply using old toothbrushes and using old/worn blades for the multi-tool. Basically giving new purpose to items that would have ended up in the trash.

First thing I thought of was the Oral-B. This likely have more power but not sure you need much more. That toothbrush is pretty amazing

@fantasticsound2085 Күн бұрын

No. And yes. An electric toothbrush absolutely does the same thing, but the hack displayed here is more than a "Tim The Tool Man" gimmick. The power and speed of an oscillating tool is a magnitude higher than any electric toothbrush, allowing someone to get the job done better, faster, and more efficiently.

@Hunter-vl6ft Ай бұрын

Or just get the steam cleaner from harbor freight for about 35 bucks. It also cleans without any chemicals.

@fantasticsound2085 Күн бұрын

@@Hunter-vl6ft steam cleaners are wonderful tools, but just as you wouldn't use a Allen bit to turn a Phillips head fastener, steam cleaners won't do what brushes do. Agitation is one of the most effective cleaning methods. Incorporating it into a power tool many of us already own, with easily available, inexpensive materials, is definitely a win. I love my steam cleaner, but it's useless against grease, heavy grime, adhesive residue and corrosion. This is going to be an eminently useful addition to my oscillating tools.

@brentfowler2317 17 күн бұрын

Hey brother, just a thought, I'd take an angle grinder, or even a file. On the brush head. Take off those sharp corners of the oscillating multi tool blade! That way you don't have to worry about scratching or cutting into anything your cleaning!! Just a thought my friend, take it say and until next time! Be safe!

Try cutting a slot with a Dremmel into the back of the brush head the width of the cutter blade and slide the brush head on so that it is rotated 90° to be in line with the cutter

@SpecificLove7 Ай бұрын

I like it. It would definitely have to be epoxied in place real well.

@fantasticsound2085 Күн бұрын

You might not have to cut a slot at all. Use a torch to heat up the blade and jam it into the back of the brush head. Then add epoxy. I do wonder if it would break away too easily from whatever off-axis pressure you introduce to keep the brushes in contact with the surface to be cleaned. Worth a try.

@larryblackmon2341 6 күн бұрын

Many those those blades out after a few uses and if you change tooth bushes often, you can use those. So with some planning you could do this for free.

@BrakhianSoldier 21 күн бұрын

Most of those can be done with no scrubbing at all. Just put a paper tower over the area you want clean, put some white vinegar in a spray bottle, spray the paper tower, wait a bit (10-20 minutes) then wipe. Repeat if necessary. Add a bit of baking soda is you must.

You should try some Bar Keepers Friend or some Bon Ami even Ajax or Comet something with a little grit. Should clean much better then.Ever try super glue and baking soda as a glue? Its something most everyone has around and i would put it up against epoxy i think. That could be something to try on a video using your oscillating cleaner as a test glue one brush with epoxy and one with super glue and baking soda, they say that graphite and superglue is even stronger but i haven't tried that. Good Luck and thanks for you video!
