Strong enough to cut metal ? Like 2mm to 3 mm

[gnesnah]

I am using dremel, no problem with cutting 3mm metal if not more with the cutting wheel. Good to have, I used it to remove 2 heads from my octo with brown jelly disease. Should have taken action earlier but don't know what to do till I read up on this disease. Otherwise I just need to remove 1 head.

Yap very good price. One attachment that you can consider is extension flexible cord. It help a lot. At least help to separate main electrical item apart from water.

If cutting aluminum sheets still ok.. Steel sheets are very though for a dremel tool. For finer grinding or shaping still ok.

[Jameshong]

Dremel or proxxon, which is better?

[mjck]

Dremel

[tanit]

Both are good. But I think Dremel get accs and attchment easier.

i bought the dremel. WHich i regret as i should be getting proxxon. As i bought the dremel for doing acrylic works.

Dremel made in mexico, lots of attachment (not cheap), attachment not necessary to buy back dremel as lots of OEM. It has high RPM (15000), good for cutting steel but low torque.

Proxxon made in germany, do have attachment but not as many as dremel, as they design different tools for differents usage unlike dremel. It has lower RPM (5000) but high torque.

Thus make it ideas to cut acrylic as high RPM will get hot and melt the acrylic easily.

Depend on your usage.

i am using black and decker rtx , quite good

[sherman]

So is anyone organising a bulk order ?

Thanks

[iskay]

Dremel set for S$109.

[JeffL]

I am also getting a rotary tool for acrylic works, can advise me which is good?

So far most tools has only min 10,000 rpm, as mentioned earlier is 5000 rpm better?

targeting Black & decker RTX. Bros who is working on arcylic, appreciate your help here

[tropic]

I am using dremel. Personally i find dremel seems to be more solid in design and grip and has a variety of attachments and support like flexi shaft, benches etc. Depending on your applications, 5000rpm will give you more control at slower speeds. Most of the ranges are 10000 above for cutting etc. Can try Sg tooling see if better prices as they have a wider range.
