Buying a dremel from amazon...

Custom WorkstationHi there,
I know there are a couple of old threads about dremel tool in this forum. I went through them, and was wondering if anyone owned Dremel 3956-02 MultiPro Super 1.15 Amp 15,000 to 35,000 RPM Variable Speed Rotary Tool. It's selling at Amazon.com for with 77 accessories...
It isn't cordless, and comes with a Flexshaft. The entire thing is for $79.00.
My question was, if anyone's bought this particular dremel before for customizing purpose, are you happy with it? General reviews on amazon seems positive overall, so I was thinking about biting the bullet....
Dr. Nightmare, I know you said that 22,000RPM is plenty to work with for customizing action figures. Since your purchase of a dremel tool, which accessory pieces have you used the most?
Any input would be appreciated.
Can't wait to purchase this thing, so I can start making magnajoints all over the figure I'm working on...

Please wait...

And if it breaks they always have plenty more, but so far no problems with it even after repeated drops and abuse, my only gripe is that every so often you have to readjust the heads or attachments because the vibration and pressure you exert loosens them.
I use these the most: Standard Dremel-bits (to drill holes), Dentist's Burr (for making swivel-joints with screws), Grinder, Cutting Disk.
Seriously, that's all you need for customs, but if you're going to be adding lights and battery-packs and magnets, then you should probably get some router bits too, I've never needed them but they're perfect for implanting magnets.
I guess you could ask Jin Johns Jacobheimerschmidt for tips too, I hear he's not a jerk so he'll answer your questions :P
