Thread Name: Dremel Fixation! I been Hyp-notized!
Subject: RE: Dremel Fixation! I been Hyp-notized!
Personally, I'm a Minicraft lad. (Do they have Minicraft over there in the States?) The Dremel is a bit too big and powerful for the kind of delicate stuff like ships-in-bottles and doll's houses that Mrs P and I like to get up to on these long winter nights. We have the 40-Watt drill and stand, the 100-Watt drill and stand (these also double as vertical millers with the addition of one or two bits of wood and some G-cramps), the sander (I forget the name of the style; it's a sort of disc job with a table, rather than the orbital or belt style), and the variable power supply. That's not to mention all the small hand-tools and jigs and stuff. The Dremel is not ideally suited for 30-gauge drills, is it?

Steve (not a hand-tool snob at all!)
