Most of the usefulness of the flex shaft attachment is in reducing the weight of what you have to hold in your hand for detail work, so this attachment isn't quite as useful to me as it would be if I had one of the corded models that weights twice as much. I bought it anyway, along with the Dremel 575 Right Angle Attachment just so I'd have it around in case I needed to get in to tighter spaces or needed further "weight reduction" over holding the tool itself in one hand. If I were using a corded model it would be absolutely essential for me for what I do.
Because it isn't something that I normally need, I haven't used it that much and probably won't use it routinely, so I can't properly speak to its durability. (I usually go back and update these reviews after a while though to update people on that.) But in my testing it feels very sturdy and solid and so I feel confident in its ability to hold up when maintained properly. (Not stored so that it bends at sharp angles, greased at intervals as specified in the manual, etc.)
It seems to have no problem working with the Dremel 4486 Keyless Chuck . Attaching and removing the flex drive from the tool itself it is similar to attaching and removing the right angle attachment (you need to replace the collet nut or chuck on the rotary tool with a "drive" adapter that the cable slots into) both of which are pretty easy. I am not entirely sure if it's OK to attach the right angle adapter to the handheld part of the flex shaft as it seems like together they may create too much friction on the drive and thus possibly too much additional load on the motor. (Remember these rotary tools power accessories based on speed, not on torque. High speed low torque often does not deal with too much continuous load very well.) Anyone who knows if this is considered OK or who has long term experience using both together please post a comment.
A couple of things that you must keep in mind when using this:
1) You really do want to hang the tool up above where you're working when you're using this flex thing. I can't say exactly why, but most likely it has to do with keeping the amount of friction low (increased when more of the shaft is curved vs straight) and keeping the shaft from bending at too sharp of an angle. If you have the Dremel 220-01 Work Station drill press type thing then that comes with an extendable hanger but I can't see any good reason to buy that thing just to get a hanger. In fact almost anyone could come up with something much less expensive and more secure than using the hanger on that. Screw an eye screw into the ceiling and hang it from a rope or run a "clothesline" across your work area and hang it on a couple of "S" hooks, or something. If you don't hang the tool I doubt the shaft is going to shred itself immediately but I'm sure it won't last as long, will be more likely to get damaged by an accidental sharp bend, and won't be able to run at as high of a speed due to the increased friction.
2) NOTE! In case you miss the little note in the box, you really do want to run this thing at high speed for a couple of minutes with it hung straight down and no accessory attached. It'll make some disconcerting little ticking sounds at first but those will stop after several seconds. I suspect the point of this is that you want to evenly distribute the grease inside the shaft before running it while bent or otherwise doing any real work. Again, I doubt you'll shred the thing if you don't do this, but at the very least you might have a little trouble with your grinding, etc, for a minute if you try to use it immediately since it's going to distribute grease or otherwise break itself in when first used no matter what. It really will run at 35,000RPM and it really is OK to run it like this for two minutes straight without doing anything. It won't whip around or anything so this is pretty safe. (My cats weren't even that afraid of it while it was doing this.)
3) You will need to grease the thing at periodic intervals as the manual says or you will eventually shred the flexible cable inside the jacket. The grease you use for this is as common as dirt at auto parts stores though.
So in short, this attachment is pretty important if you want to use a heavier model of a dremel in one hand. The other option in this case is to buy an additional smaller rotary tool for one-handed use but you'll probably end up with less power for more money if you take that option. If you already have a light tool that you can hold in one hand for a sufficient time without much trouble then you might want to hold off on buying this until the need arises. But in any case, this is a solid quality attachment that you'll likely be very happy with if and when you do have a use for it.
