Post by: Graeme Smith on October 24, 2013, 06:22:49 pm

Digging out the old adhesive/sub floor after removing a tile for replacement - this is in relation to encaustics got an exackt saw to chop out - is there a tool to carefully remove old adhesive/lime and create some room ready for the next tile without disturbing or cutting into the surrounding tiles?? A fein multitool looked like a possibility or some thing with a depth gauge - any thoughts anyone.

Have to agree with everyone the Fein Multimaster is brilliant.  Expensive but was always the best especially now as the newer one has the quick release blades where on the older ones you had to change each tool with an allen key!

The diamond wheels are brilliant Graeme. STS in Leeds do a version without the Fein cost attached!!
