This creates friction with the sanding attachments, or rapid cutting motions with the saw and grinding attachments. The accessory is fitted to the tool by a mechanism which allows that accessory to be rapidly rotated back and forth (oscillated).

A small sliver can be easily removed from timber cut too long for a perfect fit. Small and precise cuts are possible even on end grain. The ability to cut a complex or precise recess without the need to remove the work piece from where is it fixed greatly increases productivity. The small form of these tools and the ability to mount the blade or accessory in any orientation allows cutting in areas that are otherwise virtually unreachable. This is particularly useful when fitting flooring along a skirting board, cutting the skirting to allow the board to slide under for a neat finish.

Use of an offset in a fitted blade allows the tool to cut flush with a surface. The plaster cast saw formed the basis of FEIN's range of sophisticated oscillating power tools. The plaster cast saw was equipped with a more powerful gearbox to upgrade it to a chassis saw. The crescent pattern of the oscillating rotation cut through the hard cast without damaging the patient’s skin. It was used primarily in orthopaedics for cutting plaster casts. This saw was patented as a circular saw with an angular oscillating saw blade. This type of oscillating tool was originally developed by the German manufacturer Fein in 1967 with a design intended to remove plaster casts easily without cutting the patient. History Elektrische Gipssäge, a cast saw by Ortopedia (Kiel, Germany), is a power tool used to remove orthopedic casts which has an oscillating blade instead of a circular saw with a rotating blade Attachments are available for sawing, sanding, rasping, grinding, scraping, cutting, and polishing. 'Master Tool' is also a trade name used in North America, short for the original tool by Fein called the Multi-Master. The name 'multi-tool' is a reference to the many functions that this tool can perform with the range of attachments available.
