I still have and use my 1994 bought Dremel. Great tool to have.
if you can find any… not at my local and not online.
Mine broke down after light usage. Thankfully, just within warranty.
The electronics in it fried. Actually mine might have been a dremel 4000 or something.
Mine is black with red adjusting slider, has the chuck locking pin. I think it's a MultiPro going from online pics, my brother was cutting some panel for clearance for an aftermarket (larger Sump) on his car and applied too much side force and it stopped working, so taking it apart the contacts for somthing weren't touching where it should so a quick adjustment had it going again. Been using it ever since mainly for engraving, PC/Game console modding, polishing, cutting, wire brush to clean small parts, quick linishing on metal ect… makes light work of plastics
Every man needs a Dremel. What for exactly i don't know but I've used myne around 10 times in 4 years. Each time though I was like "This is awesome I'm going to use it more!" But I never do…
make that every household. i've got the cordless one and while i don't use it regularly, when i do have to use it, i wondered how i ever lived without it. i don't have any other power tools so dremels are invaluable for the small modifications and tasks i do
Comes in handy for removing callus and plantar warts
dude… i'm eating dinner!
dont need one but just bought one smh
I have an older model which I use regularly. Invaluable tool to have, for me at least.
Serious question.
Are these any better than the $20 Chinese knockoffs?
And if so… why?
they're $20 for a reason. dremel bits and accessories are expensive but for now, they're still good quality. as far as small cutting and grinding tools spinning at high speed go, i'm not going to skimp on quality
would this be able to etch a shallow channel (1m long) in concrete floor for electrical cabling? Then planning on laying timber floating floor over the top
No.
High torque, low power, you'd consume the attachments too fast and there aren't any attachments wide enough anyway.
Drill with a masonry bit? Drill vertically to start the hole, take it out, then angle it close to horizontal and keep drilling. Because the drill will jump around and not go straight otherwise.
Really, you should consider hiring the correct tool for the job. Whatever that is.
Why can't you run the cable through the wall and roof?
Awesome tip! thanks. Its in an office and the cables go from the circuit box up into the ceiling and drop down inside a stupid feature panel stuck to the side of the front desk. I want to get rid of the feature panel. so the only was to get the cabling to the desk would be on the ground. But not we want to put floating floor boards instead of carpet. Carpet we could have dealt with a slight bump, but with a floating floor I'm guessing that would not be possible to lay straight on top of cabling.
Floating floor has a rubber underlay which you could run the cable through just like carpet.
I use mine for computer mods, mainly. I've used it to polish various metals & my daughter uses it on her nails, of all things! Well, I guess it's not that odd, as the salons do it, too…I use it a lot to cut through small items or to "fix" things where a small plastic bit is broken or missing— you can make a replacement if you have steady hands & one of those little stands to hold the things for you (I also have the extension device.
Love Dremel!
:)
Sorry for the noob question, but can I use this for car waxing?
Thanks!
probably not. It has a really small head
Thanks man, have been looking for da polisher. The wax attack battery sort of died
the polishing heads are way too small.
however, i've used my dremel for rust repairs and polishing small areas on my car
Yes, for hot wheels :-)
It would take you a day to go around a normal sized car.
Damn. Bought the bottom end Dremel 200 from Bunnings on the weekend for $49.
Definitely in the market, but Dremel V Proxxon… I've been waiting for an FBS 240/E to go on special for a while now and now this is looking pretty tempting :P
