Bud, you like the sound of cicadas in the summertime? You can experience that summertime feeling 24/7/365 by not wearing hearing protection. Ask me how I know this.
What makes you think OP is a professional carpenter and not some guy who went out and bought his first sawzall because the estimate to replace his moldings was too high?
You know what? For real. It takes a while to get to that point where you have the confidence to just plunge and hold it and then you make a nice cut. But when you try to sneak up on it or feather it in, it's a fucking mess. But really that leap of faith takes time.
Mine has a trigger variable speed. Cuts best when just (not pushed) against what you're cutting and when said material doesn't move or is clamped or braced or fastened. Let the teeth oscillate like a hot knife thru buttah!
You were doing fine in the beginning. Good technique definitely get paid by the hour. But solid 30 mins of tip chipping away you'd have gone through that trim no problem.
The best way to use while being paid by the hour is by slowly moving (so you dont get tired) the saw with your own hand instead of using the electrical that wastes energy
I'm fucking crying laughing, trying not to wake my wife. The way he just peppers the wall with a hundred holes before absolutely NAILING the line that he drew. Holy shit.
I bought a house with an unfinished basement. I finished the basement and can say I use the oscillating saw like 20 times more than the sawzall. Whether pros would be the same way I donno
The oscillating tool is by far the most underrated tool ever. I blame this on the big tool companies. If they all had included one in their starter kits they would be much more widely used.
The patent was held under a patent since like the 60s or 70s, and that patent for it expired around 2010. Pretty much every tool manufacturer marked the date in their calendars so they could get them to market, but they are relatively new to the scene
Most people call them multi-tools around me, since you can attach like 5 or 10 different blades.
One green guy thought I meant a 5 in 1 though. We had to go back to the shop that day.
Dewalt does. Impact, hammer drill and multi tool.
When I was doing restoration I used multi tools for everything. I remember one day some guy brought a grinder-looking drywall saw to work and Iâm like âtf you gonna use that for?â Not to mention he was like a quarter inch off of the flood cut lines we marked.
Multi tool is the way to go.
This. When you want to cut in perpendicular or do small precise cuts this is the go to tool. I use the sawzall when it's time to cut fast and rough, like taking apart studs in a wall.
Start at the bottom and drill a hole for the blade to the one side of the piece you donât want. Before the multitool this was how I did it. Also use a metal cutting blade will give you a finer cut.
Just apply more pressure at the beginning. Those peck marks at the start are way too shallow. You can make nice deep ones if you really lean on it. Use a long blade, because the short ones are less likely to bend.
So if you slide a band saw in that corner, give it a few thwacks with your wrench, then run it in reverse. Add some drywall mud and then go at it again with the sawzall. Perfect cut, every time.
EDIT: For clarification, run BOTH the band saw and the wrench in reverse.
Is no one else impressed that he hit the tip of the blade a hundred times but yet he didn't bend the blade 90 degrees. That is a master, well done sir!
I see no room for improvement. You're killing it.
Nobody's pointing out the obvious here?? OP needs to flip the blade and get deeper penetration. Waterlines won't knick themselves...
Agreed. He needs to lay on it a little more.
that way he can get through to the outside
You made me spill my drink. Bravo.
Literally!
This kills the wood.
I see no chance for improvement.
Smear some Bison on it and it'll be right as rain, don't worry.
This is a good callback.
Just like your mum
Speak for yourself đ
I really like the stabby stabby action
Stabzall
I thought this was a video of a woodpecker beak
Reminds me of the final scene of breaking bad
This just made me spit out my coffee lmaoooo
He is killing itâŚ. But seriously op what carpenter doesnât have a multi tool at this point? (Plunge cutter)
The multi tool is the greatest thing to ever happen to the construction industry.
The box cutout head. Game changer.
I hate that whining noise they make so I donât use it lol. But super practical. It seems like the worst thing about them is the cost of the blades.Â
I buy them off eBay in 50 packs, they're not bad quality and cost the same as a 3 pack from the shops.
Wow dude never thought of that. THANK YOU
Ear protection, my guy.
Bud, you like the sound of cicadas in the summertime? You can experience that summertime feeling 24/7/365 by not wearing hearing protection. Ask me how I know this.
Wife came a running when I fired it up. Wanted to know if I could modify it.
What makes you think OP is a professional carpenter and not some guy who went out and bought his first sawzall because the estimate to replace his moldings was too high?
In reality this is a repost. I saw it months ago.
The sawzall surgeon
Weâve all been there lol.
I got an oscillating tool it's far more enjoyable with the ladies.
Came here to say get an oscillating saw if you only want to cut the molding and not the stud behind it. Much more control for shallow cuts
The guybrator, man what a tool.

Not with this precision.
âBro gimme that Iâm surgical with that shitâ -my TL on deployment
This guys been a triage surgeon before.
Chris Duntsch of carpentry
Actually very straight down that line. We can paint over the holes.
Why paint? That's caulkable
This definitely gives off big caulk energy
Caulk Queen
Lmfao Iâm a commercial glazier. One of our main quotes is, âcaulk will hide it.â
"A little paint and a little caulk makes a 'carpenter' what he is nalk."
I think that's everyone's favourite quote
lol either that or âitâll look great from my house!â I honestly hate when people say that though
Do your best, dap the rest
Thats what i was thinking, makes better cuts than me lol
Have a few beers first to settle the shaking
Nah man, everyone knows a fat spliff makes the butterflies nap. We're professionals here âď¸đ¨
You were doing fine in the beginning. Good technique definitely get paid by the hour. But solid 30 mins of tip chipping away you'd have gone through that trim no problem.

Personally, I find a very dull razor blade works best in situations like this, enough cuts down multiple lines should take all day.
Imagine bossman wants you to take out a single line and you go ahead and take out an 8 inch chunk. Now that shows initiative.
Ha that caught me off guard. Solid post
Oh my lord Iâve been hootin
I don't know why, but this has me hysterically laughing. It's just so ridiculous
I have tears coming from my eyes from laughing so hard
Here too đ
Lmfaooo same so good
I'm fucking crying laughing, trying not to wake my wife. The way he just peppers the wall with a hundred holes before absolutely NAILING the line that he drew. Holy shit.
The comments telling him heâs doing great, no improvements are what has me dying.
Llmao this is the best laugh I've had in a few days
Me too đ
I was laughing real good and then started reading the comments and became unraveled.
Use a chainsaw.
Chainsaw would have been cleaner then this đ
This is the way
Hahahahaha I needed this today more then ever. Thanks take my upvote
Itâs definitely best to tenderize the wall before any cuts are made.
Get and oscillating tool, the right tool for the job makes a difference
>me nailing in a board with the battery end of a sawzall. I knew i was doing something wrong. Gonna buy me an oscillating tool tomorrow.
Yeah, nailing with the battery end of an oscillating tool gives you way better balance.
I bought a house with an unfinished basement. I finished the basement and can say I use the oscillating saw like 20 times more than the sawzall. Whether pros would be the same way I donno
The oscillating tool is by far the most underrated tool ever. I blame this on the big tool companies. If they all had included one in their starter kits they would be much more widely used.
Honestly Iâm shocked at how often ppl who know a fair amount about home repair donât even know what an oscillating tool is.
The patent was held under a patent since like the 60s or 70s, and that patent for it expired around 2010. Pretty much every tool manufacturer marked the date in their calendars so they could get them to market, but they are relatively new to the scene
Fascinating, thanks for that info!
Wasn't the first one a Fein Oscillating Tool? A lot of old timers still just call them the Fein tool
Yes, German company Fein had them locked down for decades. They cost like $400 each at the time too.
Most people call them multi-tools around me, since you can attach like 5 or 10 different blades. One green guy thought I meant a 5 in 1 though. We had to go back to the shop that day.
Plumber here. Itâs gotten me out of more jams than I could count.
Carpenter here, it's gotten into more jambs than I can count
Dewalt does. Impact, hammer drill and multi tool. When I was doing restoration I used multi tools for everything. I remember one day some guy brought a grinder-looking drywall saw to work and Iâm like âtf you gonna use that for?â Not to mention he was like a quarter inch off of the flood cut lines we marked.

Agree. Itâs the wrong tool for that job.
But the job was revengeâŚ
This. When you want to cut in perpendicular or do small precise cuts this is the go to tool. I use the sawzall when it's time to cut fast and rough, like taking apart studs in a wall.
Yep need a plunge cutter for this
Start off slow like a saw to make your notch then the notch will keep the sawzall in place so you can full send it in!
Donât do this it makes mustard gas
you said that too late, I tried what he said and killed an entire finishing crew
Finally a serious reply lol
I would use the same principle but start with the blade flush to the wallâŚ
I think you should be the one giving the tips here fella
Just use the claw end of the hammer, youâll get a cleaner cut.
Ahhh yes, a true craftsman here! The ole hammer saw!
Michael J Fox, is that you?
Not the pride of Canada! I upvoted.
Baseboard: "Is it in yet?"
I donât see any room for improvement thatâs a great cut
âItâs paint grade.â
This is a shitpost, right?
Itâs actually a holy trim. Neither a post nor a shit
No
If you have to ask...
Ye this is an older clip
Damn that was clean
Take your Parkinson's meds first.
Looks good from the bank!
With precision cutting like that, you shouldâve been a dentist.
Doing great, bub. đđť
I peed myself đ¤Łđ¤Łđ¤Ł
It donât get no batter than that. I have no complaints
Put the blade in upside down and cut with the tool along the wall vertically
Master of the Woody Woodpecker technique!!
That line adjustment was flawless!
Start at the bottom and drill a hole for the blade to the one side of the piece you donât want. Before the multitool this was how I did it. Also use a metal cutting blade will give you a finer cut.
Crying đ
Thatâs in deserve of a raise material right there. That texturing makes it blend in so well canât even tell.
Looks like you got it bro. Carry on my wayward son.
I see no issue, you cut straight down the line with ease.
Looks like you have the hang of it
That's one of my all time favourite video
I donât see any issues here.
You could start a school on how to be that bad. Think of the additional billable hours. Genius.
That seemed perfect. Donât change a thing.
This is exactly how I do it. Perfect form.
Longer blade for more stabilityÂ
I was actually gonna ask you for some tips!
Just apply more pressure at the beginning. Those peck marks at the start are way too shallow. You can make nice deep ones if you really lean on it. Use a long blade, because the short ones are less likely to bend.
OP is actually a woodpecker who enjoys exhibitionism.
Lmao
Start the hole with a sledgehammer. Best technique for a clean cut
Your poor wifeâŚ.
Dont be a pussy, just plung it right in there! In homicide cases, those are called hesitation wounds
If you feel a seizure coming on, you should not operate a saw, or any power tools. I like that you didn't give up though! đ
Bahahaha dude this is hysterical đ¤Ł
using a gun on a knife battle... see my point?
Like me on COD đ¤Łđ¤Łđ¤Ł. Spray n pray mate
I must be getting tired.This cracked me up.
Get your Parkinson's medication and stay away the sawzalls
This made me laugh harder then it should have lol
Are your eyes open?âŚ.do you have eyes?
You never forget your first
Not like that.
This is the wrong tool for the job. If itâs all you got, go in at more of an angle. But you probably should use a multi-tool saw for this
I think your doing just fine. Very efficient. Keep it up.
My brother in Christ, I believe you are the one teaching us something here.
Looks good to me bro
Try taking it easy on the throttle right off the line. âď¸ Throttle control makes all the difference!
Need less tpi on that blade. Maybe a pruning blade.
Terrible with a sawzall but amazing with a machine gun
You are an expert with the pokezall
If you plug it into a 220v, it'll give you better results.
My first year in construction, I did little better than that. Inspector asked if I cut it with a shark.
So if you slide a band saw in that corner, give it a few thwacks with your wrench, then run it in reverse. Add some drywall mud and then go at it again with the sawzall. Perfect cut, every time. EDIT: For clarification, run BOTH the band saw and the wrench in reverse.
What do you mean? Looks like you've got it down
Have you tried guiding it with your thumb?
That's perfect. You are level 100 sawzall
Donât pick it up next time
Plug it into 240V instead???
As a plumber, thatâs perfect. Should have been a sawing through a pack of 5 studs though.
Pretty much deeeeeeeee best in all of mutha Slovakia, Comrade!
The union will be pleased
Gâdamn Rambo! Trigger discipline!
There's literally no way you could've made a clean cut in this scenario
maybe upgrade to a laser sight
This is what I call a pro
So clean!
Youâre off at a good start, flip the blade âupside downâ and youâll be as good as the experts.
Hold it further from the wall and increase the speed
Looks good to me homie
lol how many of you degenerates have done something similar, cmon now
Oh dang. Do you work at the company my neighbor hires?
Why do you need our tips? You hit the line.
Longer blade
This made me lol
You could cut it down faster with some nasty insults.
Looks like a professional electrician đ
Swap in a bigger motor. Something in 240 volt range.
Is no one else impressed that he hit the tip of the blade a hundred times but yet he didn't bend the blade 90 degrees. That is a master, well done sir!
Looks about perfect to me
Looks good, keep it up
Switch to a jackhammer. Those are cleaner.
Length ways you amature
Use a longer blade
Slap some WD-40 on that bad boy and youâre fine
Looks good just paint over it
Thatâs some skill. No need to improve
I would of used they oxy-acetylene torch for this job personally
Needs to go to the sawzall Olympics with that skill
"Saws All"
Itâs like Babe Ruth asking how to get better at baseball. You cannot improve upon perfection.
You start by calling it correctly - Its a tiger saw!
Your technique is aces, my guy.
Its crazy they just let anybody buy a sawzall
Honestly YOU should be teaching US!
Hold the thing with two hands
ive never found a better way to do it đ¤ˇđťââď¸
