DREMEL ROTARY TOOL & ACCESSORIES
The Dremel rotary tool is lightweight and compact, which makes it very "friendly" for beginners. But it's so versatile, even hardcore do-it-yourselfers find it indispensable. The Dremel is a tool that works differently from any other tool you've ever owned. It's also the most versatile tool you'll ever use. With more than 150 available accessories, you can use your Dremel to cut, sand, shape, drill, buff, grind, polish, rout, etch, clean and more. You'll use the Dremel on all kinds of materials. Metal, wood, ceramics, glass, plastic, drywall, leather, laminates, stone. Practically anything.
Just how does the Dremel rotary tool work?
The Dremel rotary tool doesn't work like other tools. Most other tools rely on brute force to muscle through jobs. The Dremel rotary tool uses speed. Very high speed! It actually spins at rates up to 37,000 rpm. That's more than ten times as fast as most drills on their highest setting. In fact, at 37,000 rpm a Dremel rotary tool with a high-speed cutting bit can make an incredible 4,600 cuts a second! Almost a quarter million cuts a minute! It's what we call "The Dremel Speed Advantage!" (Think of it as a Tasmanian devil of power tools.) And that's why we say that the speed does all the work. You just guide the tool.
Who needs other tools?
With the Dremel tile cutting bit, who needs a tile nibbler to shape tile? With a Dremel drum sander, who needs a plane to unstick a door? With a Dremel drywall bit, who needs a keyhole saw to make a hole for an electrical outlet? You get the picture. Obviously, a Dremel rotary tool won't replace all your other tools. (It makes a lousy hammer.) But for a lot of jobs that you only rarely tackle, the Dremel rotary tool makes a great alternative solution.
