Making a cutout for recessed lighting
For anyone who doesn't use a hole saw to make a cutout for recessed lighting, but
owns a Multimaster, here is a way to make a cutout in about one minute and produce
very little drywall dust.
owns a Multimaster, here is a way to make a cutout in about one minute and produce
very little drywall dust.
In this illustration, I used a Standard/Drywall blade.
I made the cutout on a piece of drywall, clamped on the
edge of a bench and underneath, I used a piece of plywood
to see how much dust the cut would produce.

First I drew a circumference 6" in diameter.
Then I made plunge cuts all around the circumference.
It took 14 plunge cuts to make the cutout.
Each plunge cut took less than 5 seconds to make since
the drywall offered almost no resistance to the cutting
blade.
The time to make the cutout was around 1 minute.

Since the Standard/Drywall blade is very thin, .025 thick, it
makes very clean, sharp cuts similar to the ones a razor
blade makes.
Consequently, it produces very little drywall dust.

Tack Welding the Adaptor to the Tool
A permanent solution to the problem of the blade coming
loose during operation is to tack weld the Fein adaptor to
the tool.
First, position the adaptor properly lined up with the tool,
then tighten it in place.
I used a countersunk screw to make sure the adaptor will
be perfectly centered.
However the countersunk screw is not really necessary you
can use the screw you currently have.
