I would get this one, it is more, but I have found that variable speed is the way to go. http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?actio...-02&lpage=none |

If price is the deal. I found one at Wal-Mart. It's some off brand one. But it only cost 20 bucks. And I have used it nonstop for a long time with no problems. It came with 100 pcs, stand, and a flex cord. Hell you can't beat 20 bucks.

I've collected a handful of Dremels over the years. My favorite is my Model #398. With other variable speed Dremels the slide switch became so worn over time that it'd easily slide from one rpm setting to the next. What a PITA when you're working with it. With the digital this isn't a concern. If you're looking to get a Dremel, go ahead and get the Flex Shaft attachment. Dremels get rather hot after they've been used for a while. The Flex Shaft keeps the heat out of your hands. |
