Dremel....Which One ???

[Steven Forster]

Alright there,

I was in B & Q the other day and while looking for something else i came across a section with a few different types/versions of dremels.

So my question is which one will be best to get for RC and all other general uses and also which attachments do you recommend.......???

Cheers :D

Have a look here. http://www.dremel-direct.com

8200 is the best, 8100 cheaper option.
That many bits depends what your doing.
Cutting discs and sanding drums would be first choice, often cheaper to buy an accessory pack and replace what you use

I don't use a dremel, I've got a set from machine mart and it's a good quality bit of kit, also much cheaper than a dremel.

I use a 4000 series depends on if you need cordless or not

I just got a 4000 and couldn't be happier. I considered cordless but I realised I don't need that degree of portability.

I think a flex shaft is an essential: link (http://www.dremeleurope.com/general/en/ocs/product/6089/223/attachments-to-reach/flexible-shaft)

And I got one of these holders because they're inexpensive and practical: link (http://www.dremeleurope.com/general/en/ocs/product/6087/235/attachments-to-control/flex-shaft-tool-holder)

I'd also get a chuck for convenience: link (http://www.dremeleurope.com/general/en/ocs/product/6067/215/multi-chuck/multi-chuck-(0,8-3,2-mm))

Look for package deals, they're often much less expensive than accumulating bits individually.
