Do most of you use an oscillating multi-tool to cut out holes in drywall, paneling, notching wood framing, etc?
What one do you think is the best (within a reasonable price)?
I've been looking at a Rockwell Sonicrafter F50 (4 amp, $139) and a Dewalt DWE315K (3 amp, $159). Both of those are corded models, and have LED lights to help you see what & where you're cutting.
BUT...it's hard not to really consider a cordless model for convenience (I think I'd be a lot more likely to use it). So I've also been looking at a Dewalt DCS355D1 cordless for $199, which also has an LED.
I think any of these 3 will probably work well, but I haven't used any of them. So I want to know what you guys that have used them think, or if there are other brands/models that you think are better.
How often do you guys use a multi-tool, and what do you mainly use it for?
Do the LED lights help?
If you didn't already own one, which multi-tool would you buy...and why?
