| 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.... |

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.
