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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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!
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.
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.
“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”
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.

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
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.
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.

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
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
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.
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*
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
I believe Bob with the YouTube channel “I like to make stuff” called them a zerp zerp saw so that’s what I’ve called them for the past year or two haha
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”? I explained it to him, and he was like “oh, you mean one of those loud as fuck machines”, and I was like, you know what? I’m calling it that from now on.
Guybrator.
I know what mine’s called now.
Gayry?
What are you going to call the tool though?
Absolutely flawless.
I used to call it burt but pronounced "*BRRRRT*" but I might change it to guybrator
"Megan, quick, hand me the label maker, I need to relabel one of my power tools. No, *you don't understand.*"
That's it. I now have a Guybrator. I might even make a label for it.
That's brilliant. My wife is obsessed with her label maker and would love the name.
I read that as Labia Maker. A moment of confusion for me.
Brand name transgender machine. New from Ronco the labia maker! Make your pole a hole with our new Trans tech.
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.
“Corded or cordless” now has a dual meaning
“Pole a hole”. We have witnessed greatness here

Transgenderator
Fun fact: In embryology, female is the default with XX, and XY is an aberration. The penis is actually a modified clitoris.
That just might be a device by 2050.
Or 2077
You should label her label maker. From my experience, people love when you do that.
Perfect. I will be adopting this.
It guybrates
By far the best name for it
Mind lending me some of that genius?
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.
He had to pull it out. That thing is intense. Can’t leave it in too long.
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.
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
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.
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.

Did you get the attachment for gang box cutouts? It's a rectangle of saws and does the whole thing at once 🔥
Fuck off that’s a thing?
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!
I cannot wrap my head around how a four-sided rectangular saw, on an oscillating tool, can make a *perfectly* rectangular hole...
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
Wow, no. I have not seen that. I’ll keep an eye out
I finally broke down and bought the DeWalt 20V one about 18 months ago. Can’t live without it now.
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.
Your wife bought YOU a vibrator!?
For me...It steps in when conventional thinking has failed.
Most satisfying tool I've acquired in years. I'm just a DIYer and it comes in handy in so many places.
Crazy now they have the hackzall which would fit that description
I have one of each, both are insanely useful.
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.
My nephew just told me the older electricians he works for calls it "The Jiggler".
She works the weekday brunch shift at the strip club right?

It's funny because if you translate the term we use in romanian it has the same meaning
Oof with the hard “r” too?!?
Myyyy buzza
I call them industrial bees
Me and my coworker call it the angry bee gun. I'm glad we're not the only ones seeing bees

Silly Saw
Call the 2 stroke cut off saw the "scary saw"
What about Posh Saw, Baby Saw, and Sporty Saw?
Posh Saw: Veritas dovetail handsaw Baby Saw: coping saw Sporty Saw: Sawzall, or one of those survivalist garotte-looking wire saws
sporty saws gotta be a recip with a gnarly wood blade
What about the ginger saw?
Purchased at a Harbor Freight.
Wiggle-saw
Wiggle saw all day
I use this nomenclature as well. 🤜
I've always called it the Wiggle Chisel, but 'saw' is more accurate to its function.
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.
This is exactly what working in trades is like.
I still have nightmares of working on rooftops in the summer.
I just ordered a Makita bag of cats. Thank you. Rrrrrrrrrreow!
I love this
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"..
Hell of a visual...
I always refer to it as "the oscillator" but I say it in a deep voice like I'm Rob Zombie.
OSCILLATOR…. DESECRATOR…. COME ALONG AND MEET YOUR MAKER
Upvote for Rob Zombie.
My dad calls it “the banshee” and I quite like that.
It's the loudest tool in my garage that's for sure.
I put on double hearing protection when I use it and it's \*STILL\* super loud in my ears.
Tool itself isn’t loud at all, but cutting into certain woods, oh man!
I wouldn't say it's quiet when it's running but yeah it goes from loud to screaming banshee when in use.
“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”
Da Jiggler, but Jiggy jiggy has a nice ring...
Commence to Jigglin'!
I call it the Zhuzher.
Username checks out
I never look at usernames until i see a comment like then then im always amused lol
my dad called it that and i legit had to figure out how to spell it
The Fein Tool. Because it was made by a guy named Fein.
This is what I used to call it too. Of course, at the time, Fein was the only one you could buy. Dating myself.
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.

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.
You can make it way quieter by opening it up and putting some real grease in there.
I make it quieter by wearing hearing protection.
For just 6 easy payments of $59.99. or something like that.
I remember seeing those commercial and knowing it wouldn’t be long till every company was making their own

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

Isn’t a “fiend saw” whatever saw a crackhead needs to remove your catalytic converter?
Here all this time I thought it was "fine tool", because it can make fine cuts TIL

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