About Dremel: A History of Brilliance and Innovation

Founded in 1932 in Racine, Wisconsin, Dremel is the current industry leader in rotary tools. The company owes its success to the inventive genius of its founder and namesake, Albert J. Dremel. In his lifetime, Mr. Dremel owned 55 patents on a wide range of products from electric erasers to a gas-powered rotary lawn mower. His most famous and important invention was a high-speed rotary tool, dubbed the Dremel Moto-Tool.

Today, the Dremel name remains synonymous with utility, durability, and innovation.

This review is from: Dremel 300-N/55 300 Series 1.15 Amp 5,000 to 35,000 RPM Variable Speed Rotary Tool with 55 Accessories (Tools & Home Improvement)

I have always wanted a Dremel tool, so this seemed like a good kit to start out with. The 55 Accessories does not mean 55 different kinds, there are as much as 5 as some of the accessories, so there's only a choice of about 12 to use.

I got this for two specific tasks that I could not do with any other tools, and the included accessories were enough to get them done.

Task 1: Hedge trimmer with hardened steel blades. Supposedly it never needs sharpening, but after 5 years it has become dull. I used the Aluminum Oxide sharpening stone, and the 8 speed, and a little finesse, and it is cutting better than it did before I sharpened it.

Task 2: I had several nail heads/screw heads in wood work that were not flush, and always bothered me. I used the cutting wheel, and it took care of them pretty quickly. Minor burns on the hardwood floor from hot pieces of metal falling off, so make sure you put something non-flammable underneath.

This is a useful tool for small spaces where you can't get a regular grinding wheel, saw, angle grinder, or drill to fit.

As you own it, expect to buy more accessories.

This review is from: Dremel 300-N/55 300 Series 1.15 Amp 5,000 to 35,000 RPM Variable Speed Rotary Tool with 55 Accessories (Tools & Home Improvement)

I used to have a cordless dremel mini mite, and I use my corded power drill with a variety of attachments for all kinds of large and small tasks, but this week I bought a Dremel 300 with some cutting blades and the power saw attachment. I tried them all out working with my son on his Pinewood Derby car. I love this tool. The power control and variable speeds are far more useful than "hi - lo" and provide a range of control that makes it a pleasure to perform different tasks with a range of attachments. The tool itself is easy to hold, light and does not transmit vibration back to the hand. It is the right scale for work I have forced onto drills and power screwdriverrs with mixed results. This is really one great little gadget.

I do have one quibble; the plug is weak. I deliberately chose a corded model, and I am glad I did, but that means extension cords (don't use a cheap indoor house extension cord, use a a construction rated cord!). I had to try several extension cords before I got one with a snug fit on the Dremel plug, that did not come loose.

This tools comes in handy more often than you think. If you are handy around the house, you'll often find yourself with a situation where you need to cut, sand, or grind something in an awkward position. That's where this tool comes in. It's worth every penny.

I recommend using the tool in small bursts because the Dremel will get very warm. If it stays warm for too long, there's a risk of damaging the brushes inside the motor. Let it cool off regularly.

I also recommend wearing hearing protection when operating the Dremel at high speeds. Too often we use tools and we forget about our ears.

Great product and Amazon sells it lower than Sears, Home Depot, Lowes, everyone else.
