Looks like nice kit but my experiences with the 4200 (a corded version of which two lasted one use each) are making me look at more powerful options.

Still, that toolbox looks quite tempting.

 

It does look good but its expensive.

I found that the Dremel cut off discs are a bit on the brittle side and oddly the cheap version from Aldi/Lidil were more robust, although the Aldi/Lidil drills and burrs weren't so good.

 

@Tyinsar I'm interested in adquiring a rotary tool, could you please give a recommendation on a more-powerful, reliable / robust alternative? (your comment on two dying after first use has scared the hell out of me)

 

Nobody wants to give input on better alternatives to dremel? :S
