[Shop-talk] Dremel die grinder

[Jim Stone]

Most everything I could say about my Dremel (15 years old, variable speed, and
one of the handiest tools I own) has already been said, with one exception: I
have found the optional flexible shaft to be incredibly useful.  It allows me
to get into even tighter spaces and makes the tool even more useful.  In fact,
the chuck on my Dremel broke a few months ago and I just keep the flex shaft
on it permanently now.
