The tool accepted my Bosch blades and my considerably cheaper Rockwell Universal Fit blades perfectly, with no adapter needed. The kit comes with an adapter, allowing you to use accessories from most major tool makers. Milwaukee doesn’t make replacement blades, for some reason that’s too bad, because the one it comes with took a pretty fair amount of abuse without failing (more on that later!). I always carry an assortment of straight and rounded blades, both wood and metal-cutting, a scraper blade, and some sanding sheets. There’s a good bit of space left over for additional blades, which you will want to stock up on. The bag is a decent size, and has plenty of room for the tool and other included contents. The Milwaukee M18 Cordless Multi-Tool comes with everything you need to get started. With improved technology, though, several cordless versions have appeared, including the Milwaukee M18 Cordless Multi-Tool Kit, model 2626-22ct, that recently oscillated its way into the HomeFixated Megaplex from Milwaukee for our evaluation. The original multi-tools all came with plugs attached, and there are several good corded models available today. Need to cut down some door jambs to slide flooring underneath? Cut a neat hole in a piece of trim or siding to install an outlet box? Perform some low-budget surgery? Multi-tools to the rescue! (Although using one as a surgical tool may void the warranty, and is definitely NOT a HomeFixated-recommended use!) It’s one of those tools that “fills in the gap,” great for doing jobs that nothing else is quite right for, or making them a LOT easier to do. (This should give you some idea of what constitutes excitement in my life). When I bought my first oscillating multi-tool, the Bosch MX25, a few years back, it was one of those “Eureka!” moments.
