A dremel is a rotorary tool used for cutting, grinding, drilling, etc if you want to see a picture google is your friend
Well that's debatable... it's at least 60% user skill. Like me with duallies in counter-strike (went 11 and 1, 5-0 in one round with three kills right in a row) I'm sure I could think of a few things it wouldn't do but... umm... I doubt those would belong on Bit-tech Often nicknamed the modders best friend.
i like my dremel. except it gets frickin hot after 15 min of use Tools that do a better job are bandsaw, jigsaw, milling machine(i wish i had these)
Actualy I have those tools but the dremel comes in handy anyway. When you want to make those precise small cuts to the smallest tolerance there is no replecement for a dremel. Also note that a tool is always as good as the users skill. If a user is skilled he/she can maeke great work with very crappy tools or limited tools, but if the users dosent have the skill all the tools in the world would make a diference.
What i would advise is that you are better buying the right tool for the job. If your seriously into modding then you wont mind spending a bit of money to make your life easyer and your mod a whole lot more proffesional. If your in it for a bit of fun then you can make do with alot less tools. Say if you want to cut a window and some blowholes your much better off with a jigsaw,set of files,drill and holesaw and alltogether they wont cost a whole lot more than a dremel (depending on what quality stuff you buy) and you will find it makes the job so much easyer and neater when you have the right kit The dremel is ok for use as a small die grinder (possible for engraving ) but we dont relly have much use for that in modding. slater..
Google for "Dremel". Find out what Dremel is. Find out shops that sell Dremels. Find out how much they sell them for. Search Bit-Tech Forums for "Dremel". Find out how it is used.
I have to disagree with you in that . Look what i ve done, and not even with a dremel but with a starke (is like 10 15 pounds).
hmmmm so all i need is patience, well i could listen to the guns n roses song to gimme a some perhaps
Hah, I'm decently sure that peoples respect for a dremel is reflective of their skill. I have a dremel with an extension (you know... the flexible tube and extension casing), and quite frankly, it does what I need it to do darn well. I've used it for plexi and metal, and it works well. It's just a matter of learning how to use it well. And no, I'm not inexperienced in other tools, I am actually decently well experienced in both metal and woodworking.
Something like that yes . Also the dremel was malfunctional and vibrated a lot, making the dremel to do the "kick back" far to often, so it took quite some time to finally mastered it.
A Flexi-attachment helps alot too. Here's some etching I did on my window (also cut out with my dremal-a-like) Meblin
