I'm considering buying one of the mini die grinder kits with accessories made by Dremel. Never had one before. Anyone on the list found them useful? If so, any recommendations on particular models to

I have a Dremel I bought 10 or 15 years ago. Would have been great when I was a kid playing with tiny models and hobby crap. As a "grown up" tool, it has pretty limited usefulness. It's too small and

I agree with most of what you wrote, however: I bought the heavy duty battery powered unit three years ago, and it is incredibly useful for those quick projects and the fine work. I also buy the heav

They're fine for small jobs or when you don't want to fire up the compressor. Get one with variable speed control ... mine has an LCD readout of RPM and though I usually run it flat out (20K RPM), I

I'm like Wayne... find very limited usefulness for the Dremel... it did a good job of cutting off my wedding ring when I nearly crushed my ring finger... didn't know how hot gold got when you use a c

I too think that a dremel is a bit on the light side and use my air die grinder for most stuff in the shop. However there are grinders that are sized midway between a dremel and a die grinder. One of

I've owned a fixed speed Dremel for over 30 years. As noted, it's pretty small, which is both its strength and it's biggest limitation. In spite of having several larger tools, I still use the Dreme

Calling a Dremel tool a die grinder is a stretch, but if you really want one - Amazon just sent a notice of a sale that seems to have lots of Dremel stuff in it. http://www.amazon.com/gp/r.html?R=2R4

When I worked in a machine shop, air grinders were just referred to as "air grinders" either straight or right angle. If someone said "die grinder", this is what they meant. http://www.dumore.com Joe
