Got the Twitchy-Tool coping saw replacement

HeyBub · 2013-03-20T11:56:14+00:00

It's a blade holder that fits in a multi-function oscillating tool. The holder then accepts a 3-inch saw blade plus various spiral-toothed blades. With this tool and blade in place, the result replaces a coping saw and other tools for detail work. This is a fairly new tool and prices are all over the place (Rockwell, Bosch, etc.). The best price I found was from Amazon for the one made by Dremel, a few pennies less than $20. I experimented a bit and found the tool to do MUCH better than my ham-handed prior attempts at molding coping.

I read that before I bought my last HF blades, too. Useless. Bosch does have a disk that fits over the blade mandrel to make it more or less flat (small bumps, intended to grip the blade apparently). Using that, anything, sorta, fits but it doesn't hold the blade well and there is nothing to really center the blade. I ended up using it yesterday because the new Dremel blades don't fit the Bosch, either.

Where do the pins go? Gee, I thought they were intended to go

*through* the blade to hold it. They don't.
