A multifunction tool is an oscillating power tool that can perform a wide variety of tasks thanks to interchangeable blades and accessories. It works with a side-to-side movement, rather than a circular motion, which is so fast it feels more like a vibration.
Comes with a metal and a wood blade.
The most common tasks for a multifunction tool are sawing, sanding, grinding and scraping. However, the real advantage of a multifunction tool is that it has almost endless applications, giving you lots of flexibility.
