WOW.
I have the Dremel 3000, The kit included Flexi Drive and a plethora of other bits and pieces. Since that purchase I have gone Dremel crazy.
A router table and hand held router, work station. Plus a Moto saw. No probs so far, a very versatile kit for small work, I like to create clocks and will be starting on doll houses as soon as time allows.
I was suckered into a Twist a Saw. Spose it comes under this forum. It died on the third attempt, most of the accessories were inter mingled with the Dremel stuff, however the Twista saw mob replaced the whole kit and kaboodle with a newie.
Ok a comparison. The Dremel is my weapon of choice, however I use 1/4 inch router bits in the twist a saw as a handy palm router. The twist a saw accessory case has an informative index so identifying bits is a lot easier.
Was trying to remove screws from a door hinge, screw heads full of paint and bashed beyond use. Simple Dremel to the rescue. Used a metal cutting wheel to cut a new slot, ta da screw succumbed Dremel power and was removed easily. ( Think that makes sense)
If only Dremel came up with a bit case similar to a drill bit case.
Any way enough.
Happy Dremeling
