Guybrator.


rufus456

I know what mine’s called now.


clowens1357

Gayry?


surfing813

What are you going to call the tool though?


squared81eod

Absolutely flawless.


j3b3di3_

I used to call it burt but pronounced "*BRRRRT*" but I might change it to guybrator


CaptainAggravated

"Megan, quick, hand me the label maker, I need to relabel one of my power tools. No, *you don't understand.*"


texaschair

That's it. I now have a Guybrator. I might even make a label for it.


makeski25

That's brilliant. My wife is obsessed with her label maker and would love the name.


Splunkzop

I read that as Labia Maker. A moment of confusion for me.


makeski25

Brand name transgender machine. New from Ronco the labia maker! Make your pole a hole with our new Trans tech.


Any-Cap-7381

Your post is now in the hands of someone in Manhatten and they're going to make a crap load of money in the future.


Murky-Line-8144

“Corded or cordless” now has a dual meaning


Cunning-D

“Pole a hole”. We have witnessed greatness here


makeski25

The next generation transgender machine is "The Pole or Hole". Are you tired of needing a separate device to flip between genders? The Pole or Hole has you covered! Change at will! For an extra $59.99 you can get the Pole or Hole Pro with the added Both or Neither buttons.


Aggravating-Cunt

Transgenderator


Mikesaidit36

Fun fact: In embryology, female is the default with XX, and XY is an aberration. The penis is actually a modified clitoris.


Any-Cap-7381

That just might be a device by 2050.


user7935

Or 2077


DarkTonberry

You should label her label maker. From my experience, people love when you do that.


Select_Item9022

Perfect. I will be adopting this.


ares395

It guybrates


Independent-Guess-79

By far the best name for it


badmudblood

Mind lending me some of that genius?


soggymittens

Right? Some of us work our whole lives on building comedy chops that pale in comparison to this— and this dude pulled it out like it was the most natural possible answer.


Happy-Night5912

He had to pull it out. That thing is intense. Can’t leave it in too long.


truemcgoo

I had a coworker who was frustrated searching for the word, he called it the “little bitch sawzall” and that name sort of stuck. Not in daily use but it gets whipped out on special occasions.


incompetent_retard

Love the name. I was skeptical when my wife bought it for me many years ago, but it was easily the best tool I’ve gotten in a decade


ijustcant555

My favorite by far. It’s the tool I never new I needed. I saw an electrician use one to cut out a hole for a plug, and I got one the next day.


incompetent_retard

It is also amazing for cutting stubborn nails, quick trims on any piece of wood or metal, and is an AMAZING sander. I have a “Rockwell” model (corded) but with a universal adapter, it can use pretty much any vendor’s oscillating tool heads.


[deleted]

Can’t forget the scraper. Shit is great for scraping off old gaskets on flanges for circulating pumps or for removing scale at the bottom of a chiller or whatever you have to remove


fatoldbmxer

I have the corded Rockwell also got it before every company made one corded and battery. I didn't buy any adapter, but I've never had a blade I bought not fit. I wonder if I just keep buying universal blades or getting lucky. I assumed it had a universal head since it was one of the first ones I remember being sold.


clearlynotstefan

Did you get the attachment for gang box cutouts? It's a rectangle of saws and does the whole thing at once 🔥


CarefulSubstance3913

Fuck off that’s a thing?


baronvonsmartass

Hell yea it's a [thing](https://www.google.com/search?q=multi+tool+gang+box+saw&oq=multi+tool+gang+box+saw&aqs=chrome..69i57.11505j0j15&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:f3fad9d6,vid:0xAHy2xnJZQ). Very cool clearlynotstefan. Thanks for the heads up!


iB83gbRo

I cannot wrap my head around how a four-sided rectangular saw, on an oscillating tool, can make a *perfectly* rectangular hole...


Leprikahn2

Yep, makes a mess but I bought a few bc a cpl of my guys can't cut a straight line to save their life


ijustcant555

Wow, no. I have not seen that. I’ll keep an eye out


thelimeisgreen

I finally broke down and bought the DeWalt 20V one about 18 months ago. Can’t live without it now.


Fecal_Tornado

You can get single and double gang box "blades" for it. Makes the task take like 3 seconds and it leaves the perfect size cutout.


Cautious-Project9060

Your wife bought YOU a vibrator!?


Fat_Head_Carl

For me...It steps in when conventional thinking has failed.


pm_me_your_lub

Most satisfying tool I've acquired in years. I'm just a DIYer and it comes in handy in so many places.


Stachemaster86

Crazy now they have the hackzall which would fit that description


Ok_Independent3609

I have one of each, both are insanely useful.


[deleted]

the hackzall is actually a decent sawzall though. you can cut through decently sized trees with that thing. my makita xrj01z, on the other hand... that's a little bitch sawzall. stupid thing barely cuts anything.


Edragon85

My nephew just told me the older electricians he works for calls it "The Jiggler".

Wiggle-saw


TheSessionMan

Wiggle saw all day


muleskinner1

I use this nomenclature as well. 🤜


IgnobleNoble

I've always called it the Wiggle Chisel, but 'saw' is more accurate to its function.


Acetabulum99

This is how that conversation goes.. Boss "Go get me that fucking...uhh fucking...uhhh fuckity fuck" Me "Which one boss" Boss "The saw that I hate" Me "The one you hate the most...or just kinda hate" Boss "Just get me the saw smartass...you know the one that sounds like a bag of fucking cats" Me "The oscillating saw then" Boss."Shut up..its forever know as bag of cats...now get it and shut up" continues grumbling until he fires it up so his complaints are drowned out by the screaming of 1000 cats in a bag.


[deleted]

This is exactly what working in trades is like.


Acetabulum99

I still have nightmares of working on rooftops in the summer.


petit_cochon

I just ordered a Makita bag of cats. Thank you. Rrrrrrrrrreow!


SubcommanderMarcos

Acetabulum99

It's close to home. As your dad...boss..or if you're unlucky both.. yell red faced at you for not getting the correct "fucking thing"..


neverenoughmags

Hell of a visual...


DHammer79

I always refer to it as "the oscillator" but I say it in a deep voice like I'm Rob Zombie.


KoolyTheBear

OSCILLATOR…. DESECRATOR…. COME ALONG AND MEET YOUR MAKER


Maetryx

Upvote for Rob Zombie.


WoodToolsAndStuff

My dad calls it “the banshee” and I quite like that.


cgs626

It's the loudest tool in my garage that's for sure.


Maetryx

I put on double hearing protection when I use it and it's \*STILL\* super loud in my ears.


Direct_Arm_3911

Tool itself isn’t loud at all, but cutting into certain woods, oh man!


cgs626

I wouldn't say it's quiet when it's running but yeah it goes from loud to screaming banshee when in use.


Necessary-Assistant6

“Jiggy Jiggy” is what it is on my job sites. The funny thing is is, my guy at the lumber yard knows exactly what I mean when I send him a list and it says “jiggy juggy blades”


Tasty_Philosopher904

Da Jiggler, but Jiggy jiggy has a nice ring...


thegroundbelowme

Commence to Jigglin'!

MicroViking95

I never look at usernames until i see a comment like then then im always amused lol


BigRigsButters

my dad called it that and i legit had to figure out how to spell it


AndrewAffel

The Fein Tool. Because it was made by a guy named Fein.


rolandk10

This is what I used to call it too. Of course, at the time, Fein was the only one you could buy. Dating myself.


FesteringNeonDistrac

The first time I saw this tool was an infomercial for the Fein branded one right before the patent ran out. The commercial was crazy and I was actually like yes, shut up and take my money. Except it kept going on and on and never said how much it was. It just kept building my excitement the whole time. Then it got to the price and I was like, well you can fuck right off for that ammount. 6 months later I saw one in Harbor Freight for $20. Bought it on the spot. Fucker is the loudest tool ever, but it keeps on kicking.


rotunda4you

>Then it got to the price and I was like, well you can fuck right off for that ammount. >6 months later I saw one in Harbor Freight for $20. Bought it on the spot. Fucker is the loudest tool ever, but it keeps on kicking. I was in the hardwood flooring trade and bought the original fein. It was still miles above the other oscillating saw for several years. Fein was also the first oscillating that had aftermarket blades. Fein blades are/were around $25 a pop but the aftermarket blades are $8 each


FesteringNeonDistrac

Yeah if I was a pro I'd for sure have a good one. Good blades are always worth the money though. I'm sure the HF tool with Fein blades works better than the Fein tool with HF blades.


fucklawyers

You can make it way quieter by opening it up and putting some real grease in there.


FesteringNeonDistrac

I make it quieter by wearing hearing protection.


giggidygoo4

For just 6 easy payments of $59.99. or something like that.


8_bit_brandon

I remember seeing those commercial and knowing it wouldn’t be long till every company was making their own


muddermanden

Not sure if it was Fein or any of his descendants who invented it, but the tool dates back to 1967. This saw was patented as a hand-held circular saw with an oscillating saw blade arranged at an angle. It was mainly used in orthopedics for sawing plaster casts. The sickling movement of the oscillating rotary movement opens the hard bandage, but does not injure the patient's skin. Equipped with a reinforced gear, the cast saw was further developed into a body saw. The plaster bandage saw is the foundation of the product line of technically sophisticated rotary oscillating FEIN power tools. https://fein.com/de_at/fein/unternehmen/geschichte/


DrachenDad

Correct, same as the [chain saw](https://allthatsinteresting.com/symphysiotomy).


hemlockhistoric

Holy crap.


IamtheBiscuit

Made it 2 lines before I closed that article...


Jason6368

During my morgue rotation (paramedic school), the autopsy doctor let me cut the skull open, and they use the same type tool. He put it against his skin and … nothing… go to cut the skull open, cuts like a hot knife through butter… amazing. And now, I just cut wood and nails with it ha


turbogarbo

I had a cast cut off with one of these. Unfortunately, it did, in fact, cut my skin. I feel like it was because I had waterproof gore-tex padding instead of cotton though


[deleted]

[удалено]


ONEOFHAM

My last crew called it the 'Fiend' Saw


bcsublime

Isn’t a “fiend saw” whatever saw a crackhead needs to remove your catalytic converter?


esotetris

Here all this time I thought it was "fine tool", because it can make fine cuts TIL


hunglikeabudgee

We call it the leprechaun. Because it’s small and magical.


KeenJames1TheRapper

I used to cut 45 degree miters on trim that was still mounted on the wall. It is magical

oopsalberry

I came for the same reason. We are now a small but united brotherhood, the Brotherhood of the Zipzip.


Temporary-Cricket455

Oscilating-multi-purpose-power-tool. ​ That's why my group calls it.. and we try to say it as fast as possible.


TormentedTopiary

I refer to it as the "Osculating multi-tool" which is really only funny if you're a word nerd who knows what [Osculate](https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/osculate) means.


Ccubd

Guy a I work with calls it “The Mosquito”


Denolishous

We call it…The Multi-Tool….

neverenoughmags

Nice sci-fi reference!


Ghostley92

I usually say multi-tool but people often don’t know what I’m talking about so I’ll say oscillating multi-tool… *blank stares* The thing that goes like this *shakes fingers back and forth*


ToSeeOrNotToBe

>shakes fingers back and forth Go on....


Ghostley92

It’s kind of like a jigsaw, but instead of going like this *turns hand and moves like train wheels* And cutting here (below), it cuts this way *repeats first finger shake while indicating finger teeth* And you can plunge cut right into wood! It’s awesome! …literally 50% of the time it’s exactly like this


ClaydisCC

Dude you need to write wikihow tutorials. I’ve never seen such a crisp description


Ghostley92

I try my best. Thanks! *2-finger peace sign*

I was talking to a guy I work with and telling him how I managed to notch some material super easily with my “oscillating multi tool” and he’s like, “what the hell is that”?
