You know with the higher powered 400 dremel. I think it could do some good work with some delrin projects.

What I was thinking is to use it with a bench grinder with a flex shaft.

In the pictures I posted, it shows the Dremil flex shaft attachment they sell. The bench grinder has an output for a Dremel type flex shaft and the grinder is variable speed.

The grinder flex shaft idea is a good one IMHO.

I was just searching through posts researching lathes, and ran across across this thread.

The link in the first post made me laugh....................Vanda-Lay Industries??

Cosmo Kramer: [phone rings, Kramer picks up the phone] Hello... What Delay Industries?
George Costanza: [yelling from the bathroom] Vandelay! Say Vandelay!
Cosmo Kramer: No, you're way, way, way off. Well yeah, that's the right number, but this is an apartment.
George Costanza: [rushes out of the toilet with his pants on his knees] Vandelay! Say Vandelay Industries!
[falls down]
Cosmo Kramer: Yeah, no problem.
[hangs up phone]
