HAMMER DROP - Dremel Rotary Drill $44.00

[ghettogal]

hmmm...checked the search and nothing came up for this morning's hammer drop...u guys detest hammer drops this much??

Anyways, here's the deal

Dremel
MultiPro High Speed Rotary Tool Kit
MSRP $99.00
HAMMER DROP PRICE
$44.00

Is that a good price?? My dad was looking for this and missed out on the last rotary tool kit. And he's not a fan of the cheaper ones you guys were talking about that goes on sale for 10 bux.

Yeah that's a pretty good price, and a good model.

I would not buy the new dremel they came out with. It's crap compared to this one

This is a great model. I bought a used one 5 years ago off of ebay, and after 5 years of punishment it just this last weekend it gave out on me. Definitely a solid unit, I just ordered one.

Ordered mine

Damnit... I have no money but I ordered one anyway. I've always wanted a Dremel and I could never fool myself into settling for a Mastercraft.

Impeccable timing! It comes with a 5-year warranty.

I'm tempted in getting this but what do we actually use this for? I mean, I heard, this would be handy if your doing various mods i.e, to your computer case etc...but any other things?

[mlc2000]

If this thing is anywhere near as handy as the Dremel Contour Sander I just bought, I'll be a happy man.

Thanks OP.

Nice buy.

[Melmo]

I pulled the trigger on this one - been thinking about getting a dremel for awhile, at this price, why buy imitators?

Wish it had the flex shaft. As it is, I like the JobMate for $14 better.

[jackass_ca]

Yeah, the Mastercraft kit, also comes with the flex shaft which is essential if you're doing detailed and intricate work

It was used to begin with, at least a year I'd guess, maybe more though.

I originally bought one for a case mod, but have since appreciated having it many times.

Things I've used it for: taking fused pieces of a headgasket off an engine, taking rust off of all kinds of things, precision small hole drilling (in this case making a pepsican stove for hiking - the flexible attachment really helps), cutting a small notch out of a baseboard without having to take the whole thing off, sharpening lawnmower blades, polishing metal pieces, a fair bit of grinding too but specific examples elude me at the moment.

Keep lots of cutoff discs (the heavy duty ones, the light ones break too easily) and grinding/sanding attachments around, and you wouldn't believe the uses you come up with for these things.

Edit: I own the mastercraft unit too with the flex shaft, I leave it on my bench and use the dremel as a portable unit. I prefer the dremel though by a wide margin because the bits are so much easier to change.

Is shipping free?

Leave the delicate work and playing with shafts to the women. :P
