Got my Harbor-Master

 

Just picked up my Harbor Freight "multifunction power tool" today--for
$35 w/coupon. In honor of the tool it's a clone of, I'm going to call it
the Harbor-Master.

Saw the new models there, which are going for $49. They have variable
speed, and I understand that they've improved the mounting system so
that the little nubs don't wear down so fast. But I'm looking forward to
using mine soon (have a job where I need to open up some plaster walls).
It seems to be well and solidly built.

I did pick up a couple extra blades, including a carbide and a diamond
one. We'll see how it does.

In case you missed it and find the tooth blade wears out fast, the Dremel
works in it.

 



David...Keep us posted on how well it works. WW

 



Here's how well they work: the one I bought last year now has racked
up maybe 100 hours or more, sawing, slicing up old linoleum, cutting
drywall, on and on. Resharpened the cutting blade successfully with a
disc cut off tool. So what are you waiting for? You know you need one

I've been abusing my HB multi-tool heavily for a year with no issues.
