Dremel fit for customizing?

Posted in Custom Workstation

Where can I get a Dremel that would help to customize. So far I have only seen ones for dog nails and the like. Price is not an issue, either are online sites, but I prefer actual stores.

Nothing is as cool as what I use at work. Ultra hi-speed rotary and a lower speed rotary. Both use pedals and the hi speed is air powered, sounds like a mini jet turbine

I recommend The Home Depot. I got an excellent dremel drill for $70 and a 5 year warranty for $4. They have the biggest selection on the drills themselves and the drill bits.

yeah they were $65 at walmart. My dad took it back, he's a pain to shop for, and got a normal corless one. He uses his for engraving and doing artwork/knife handles. the pistol grip would be good for customizing though as it would give better control. I saw one at big lots too, it would probably be okay as long sa you didn't push it too hard.

it depends. Sometimes with kits you can get them for 50-100, the cordless are more expensive. The battery for mine I got through my mom's job at Lowe's and it was 25 after shipping. There are even very basic knockoff ones you can get that work okay. I'd get one with multple speeds, usually the corded ones have a higher number of speeds to go through. My craftsman one had 4 speeds while the cordless ones are all 2 speeds. Not sure about the new corded one we have. You could also check Lowe's and home depot as they sometimes have them on blowout, for x-mas we got my dad a 70.00 one for 28 bucks.

Walmart is probably your best bet but Sears is also good as sometimes you canget the Craftsman ones (made by dremel) for a better price. If you get a cordless buy an extra battery.
