Default dremel loud?

Do dremels make alot of noise? I live upstairs in a 3 floor apt building and trying not to distract the neighbors downstairs. I lost my hearing when i was 17 so i have no idea if it's loud or not.

Stupid question but oh well....

Something to remember is if your cutting metal it can get alittle louder then normal.

as long as you keep the speed in the 5k-10k RPM range, the noise shouldn't be a problem. Also, consider asking the neighbors if they were bothered. Or, become buddies with someone with a garage, and machine away!

I was born with a very slight hearing loss and gradually declined over the years and when i turned 17, it declined down to 10%. Now 10 years later, i can't hear a thing without hearing aids.

It's good to know that you can hear with hearing aids.
