Better than a Dremel? Mar 7, 2014 9:52:41 GMT -8

Way back when, I bought a Dremel tool, and burned it out doing metal work.

I bought Craftsmen, just in case, so nothing lost.

I would like to find something with more horsepower than a dremel, but I don't think I want a die grinder.

Is there something in the middle, that doesn't cost as much as a Foredom?

It's no fun if you practice, first.

Dremel's and their "clones" are mainly for the hobbyist. Foredom (with it's flex shaft and hand pieces) are built for production level work, i.e. jeweler trade. Bigger, better motor.

A Milwaukee 1/2" hole shooter makes a damn fine grinding and sanding tool.
