What happens here

A piece of downspout is shown with a poorly executed cut, which the presenter explains was made with an oscillating multi-tool equipped with a brand new blade. The cut is visibly uneven and the metal is 'peeled' and deformed, resembling a 'tuna can' opening. This illustrates the inadequacy of an oscillating tool for cutting thin sheet metal downspouts cleanly.

Goal: The presenter demonstrates a previously attempted cut on a downspout using an oscillating multi-tool, which resulted in a deformed and jagged edge, unsuitable for a clean installation.

Tools and materials

  • Downspout — A sample of downspout showing a deformed cut
  • Multi-tool blade Milwaukee — The blade attached to the oscillating multi-tool

with this one right here we still got to put a little bit more of the down spout in I'll be installing a second one over here this is what the setup look like we had to cut a section of this off and that's been a little bit of a challenge I used an oscillating tool with a brand new blade it ended up peeling my cut just like a tuna can I used the sawsaw after that cuts are a little bit sketchy so I pulled out my new 3-in cut off tool by Milwaukee this is by far the nicest
