Dremel Rotary Tool Accessories/Bits Comparison & Overview

[@boonang4097]

Amazing collection of rotary accessories. Just need to watch this video and one is already way way ahead in knowledge of this toolset. Fantastic sharing.

[@peterszar]

I recently purchased a Dremel 4200 and this video was very informative. Thanks for taking the time to produce it.

[@Gundesalf]

I was looking for a coprehensive manual on all the accesories I've got, and this is it. Thanks.

[@ChozoSR388]

Thank you for making this video; I literally just got my first rotary tool today, a gift from my father. I had no clue there was so much versatility from these guys. Mine is pretty entry-level, but it gets up to 25,000 RPM. Can't wait to start practicing with it and getting into it!

[@luisapaza317]

I have an Ing-Co one, its awesome

[@TD-wi1zh]

Thanks. Just inherited a 'rotary tool' with lots of bits I want to know more about. Now I do thanks to you :)

Just got my first Dremel. It is the 3000 model. Thanks for all the tips and for showing accessories!

[@stbeeze]

Excellent video, Thanks. I’ve been using a Dremel tool many years and there was 3 of those accessories bits that I had no idea what they were for, LOL. Thanks for the education.

[@Nancy-gf9mv]

VERY informative. Thank you! Just got a Dremmel for my ceramic products and was overwhelmed with the accessories. This really helped!

[@wayneo7307]

I've been using Dremel for years . Great Video for Someone Who wants to learn about them or learn more.

[@morganzy]

Thank you! I just bought a small kit but wasn't sure what most of the bits were for. This video is so extremely helpful! I really appreciate it :)

[@rudytoth]

I have a Dremel 3000 variable speed type rotary tool and I got another part kit like it's 160 parts which is good bargain. These tools are great for detail work to those who might be new at this great tool. This guy got some cool Dremel parts some are interesting! 😎👍🏻

[@rexeffect7122]

Excellent video, I’ve learned so much about the Dremel tool. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@BengtRosini13]

I own 3 dremels, 2 flexi shafts and a plethora of bits. It allows me to do a lot of carving and shaping of brass, copper, aluminium, steel, wood, and stone. Good presentation

[@thedaddiproject8638]

Got were so thorough and still uplifting and positive that I just had to support your channel. Best of luck to you friend! You got this!

[@everythingisvibration]

Kutzall makes the best burrs I've ever seen for removal of wood. Great video, nice breakdown of everything.

[@puzzlering1]

Thank you for a really interesting and informative video, I have a few Dremels and a lot of accessories and now thanks to you I know what they are properly for😅 Thank you again Take care and be safe Sam N.Ireland

[@davidschwartz5127]

The first tool every shop must-have is a vise, the second is a Dremel!

[@kwader_1404]

Clamps !!

[@axelateon1384]

Totally agree!! Its really handy!

[@r5LgxTbQ]

got the $10 Harbor Freight rotary tool and I'm addicted already

[@gergemall]

Thank you I was thinking about looking this up yesterday.

[@Vreguleift]

I've been using my Dremel 3000 for over 5 years now, and it's come in handy on countless projects. Re-sanding super hard-to-reach spaces on my deck, gently widening some holes in the bathroom while installing new pipes, doing precision maintenance on rusting equipment/restoring antique equipment, and so many other applications. More often than not, it wasn't a question of whether or not my Dremel was handy for the job, but rather; "Do I have the right attachments?" I'd HIGHLY recommend one of these (or a newer model) to anyone who ever does work on their own home or has an interest in woodworking.

[@CatusMaximus]

Try running your Dremel bits with a Rotozip then things really get exciting

[@flick22601]

Catus, I just took delivery of the Dremel drill press attachment. You may want to get one and do a review on it. It's far handier than I thought it would be. Helps pevent breaking those tiny drill bits. Can also be mounted sideways so you could fashion an above the table saw with it or use it as a mill.

[@retoricoycinica]

thank you very much, you did an amazing video explaining the accessories

[@loneninja]

Thank you for one of the most informative videos on YT!

[@lazmotron]

WOW, what a great resource on tools your channel is. I'll be learning a lot. I'm also interested in buying an Alfine internally geared hub and pairing it with a mid drive motor on my bike. Great Channel!

[@redwoodsquirrel432]

Very informative video mate, I'm just about to purchase my first Dremel and wasn't sure which kit to buy. It looks to me that you wont run out of accessories for about 100 years 😊

[@Hexsyn]

I am very jealous of that diamond grit kit!

[@seniorchiefharris]

Great video! I've used dremel tools for years and years...great tool that comes in a variety of sizes and shapes! Note that a less expensive tool that is a little heavier, but much less expensive is the Black and Decker '3 speed' tool that is a little heavier duty than a dremel, but is ALSO a variable speed even though it is advertised as just a '3 speed'!!! I have several of both and find them both excellent detail tools for small wood carvings and other household/hobby tasks...

[@MrSeinfeldFan2]

Worrying about a video TOO LONG?.... I am actually TIRED of all these mini videos that try to say something but they don't accomplish it. I am a sort of a beginner and I LOVE your video... it's giving an IDEA of what's possible to do. Thank you

[@NathanCEnyart]

I also discovered this last week that if you work with PEX water line Dremel's are good for cutting off the crimp rings on these lines.

[@2spoons]

I've never seen the chuck before.... great video for explaining what the tools are for.... (perhaps I don't read the manual often enough) lol

[@paulbarry5730]

thank you for a straight to the point a nd in simple talk and well explained vid

[@coventrykid]

Excellent video, informative and helpful. Thank you

[@fuxseb]

As the late Hunter S. Thompson would say, "Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get locked into a serious dr...emel accessory collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can."

[@marcushume2240]

Awesome video. Thanx for taking the time explaining in detail. Appreciate it.

[@gregserna963]

I've been into Dremels 4 some time now, I have an assortment of them, and a lot of accessories as well, it's quite the multi tool 4 various jobs, as well as hobbies!! Love my Dremels. Thanks 4 your videos Cactus Maximus!!!

[@darkonikolic8377]

Great video, very detailed and properly recorded, thanks a lot :')

[@richb2229]

I bought a bunch of sets on sale and are still working off consumables from those. I have a bunch of those tiny drill bits from PCB suppliers. They come in handy when I have to drill very hard steel. I don’t use a lot but really need it when I do.

[@braveartstudios1687]

excellent, informative and very helpful, thank you for your time and help :)

[@CatusMaximus]

You're very welcome!

[@robinstewart6510]

You have a rather cluttered storage system for your Dremel setup. I use two of those yellow plastic 4-drawer storage bins from HF (item 68238/95466, $15) for my Dremel stuff. Even the Dremel tool themselves (along with batteries & larger accessories) fit into the storage compartments on top. I have a drawer bin (18 compartments) dedicated to cutting, another for grinding, and so on (sanding, buffing, polishing, etc). The bins sit on a shelf, moved to the work area when needed.

[@goose278]

Just what I needed to know! Thank you so much for your video

[@johngoodall7097]

I found this video very informative, I knew there were loads of accessories for dremel and rotary tools, but you have shown there is an unimaginatively large range available and thank you for that. I would say that however the chinese flex shafts seem to last better than the Dremels own brand flex shafts, and need to be left to cool a bit after using or they can overheat and the inner shaft can shear off inside and they are not cheap to replace, but the Chinese ones are!!! I just subscribed tonight and I see that your video was posted in February 2019 so you may not get this comment.

[@tinaschroeder7123]

Mind.. blown. I’ve had an accessory kit forever.. didn’t understand what many of them were for. So grateful when people like you take time to share your knowledge. Can’t wait to try my accessories out. :) Do you happen to know.. I found a multipurpose cutting bit that I wanted to use for cutting drywall.. but it was RotoZip brand. Would that also fit in a Dremel? The young kid at the store said no.. but I kept comparing the size & seemed SO close to my eyes. Thanks!

[@ingridw3900]

It is all such a big mystery to unravel. I did not know 9/10s of what you mentioned after 3 tools.

[@dogface4009]

Great video you are a life saver!

[@marvelousmaker]

For the tiny drill bits I recommend a using a Dremel press to minimize breaking

[@timkrouse345]

I will never use 90% of my accessories, but I like them and I want more.

[@Mike_HuntizWet]

😂. Same

[@spfttt]

Thorough and well presented. Earned a subscribe. Thank you.

[@Anonymous-it5jw]

Thanks for this video. The EZ Lock metal cutting wheels will cut through welds and bolts in places with limited access for larger tools, such as attachment points for automotive catalytic converters and mufflers. It would be nice if there were a guide which actually told users what speed accessories should be used at for maximum benefit and to avoid having them fly apart during use.

[@DrewDiddy7703]

Popular in paw trimming too. Although my dog is terrified of the sound of the motor

[@toddcombs7074]

Super video thanks again.Great info on a great tool.

[@CatusMaximus]

Thanks

[@politicalpotato8383]

@@CatusMaximus , have you seen the "Snap Ring Chronicles"? ... i just ran across it.

[@bazzinbulgaria4826]

I've been using Dremels for years now and they are great little tools. The only thing that gets up my nose is the price of most of the accessories plus the fact that most of those bits are not available over here. I just make do with what I can get , Still love them though.

[@trippingonrocks1165]

I got my self a cheaper version of the dremel. Nothing is labelled and I can't figure out how to get the wand to work. These videos are so helpful. I can never sharpen my chainsaw right and I have pink ones, that's what I'll do this afternoon. Thank you for sharing #thefinders

[@miqueaardwolf7761]

I am looking for t when/where you would use each tool. not just its name,. I want to know what kind of material the accssory is for, not just names. That seems difficult to find.I 'm mistakenly thought that's what this video was for. You d an excellent job of naming accessories.

[@occipitalneuralgia2339]

Me too, I have this big old set....nothing labeled, have no idea what should be used on what. The different colors , of the grinders, sanders, the different kinds of brushes, off to see if any chart has ever been made. Mine is a discontinued brand...so I don’t know even the shank size. I did find this online for descriptions of some accessories with pictures! Dremel Accessories - Explained ・ClearlyHelena www.clearlyhelena.com/dremel-accessories-explained/

[@johnniebobb1938]

I wish someone would show how to use those crappy little sandpaper disc I have allot of them and I don`t know how to use them

[@louispeters2105]

There supposed to be "peel and stick" to a rubber disk bit. There terrible! Try a "gel" super glue to attach the sanding disk to the rubber. REMEMBER the dremel will "kick back" if applying too much pressure. About half of that pressure is the max I've gotten a sanding pad to stick and work..... Good luck don't give up. As a tool guy I've found an actual cainsaw sharpening tool takes more of a beating lasting longer than the Dremel brand rotor

[@mnice59]

In to them for awhile, hell i used to drink those instant coffees.

[@asdf9890]

Thanks, just bought a 200 something piece harbor freight bit set, and wanted to know what all they were.

[@miqueaardwolf7761]

thank you so much, I am just starting and learing what accessories do what

[@pyroarch57]

Very informative, thank you.

[@djosearth3618]

7:43 Tip put in a cheap pair of tweezers for grabbing all those lil pieces in all their lil places! Maybe "Harbour Freight useda sell 'em" to those as well... * ;]*

[@adelecondron-king2365]

Super .....I know a LOT more now !!!!

[@MegaJasonic]

Nice collection!

[@sneakyb8731]

Word of advice, if you do alot of carving.Don't waste your money on the actual dremel tool , Spend the extra money and buy a foredom. I do wood carving and got tired of going through the actual dremel tool (burnt up 6 of them) plus the foredom is easier to manage while using and it has TONS more power.

[@wallyzeisig]

Thanks for showing all the different tools but my problem is knowing how to put them on the “stick” and how to use them. I’m a mosaic artist and I need to grind glass edges to make them smooth and less lethal.

[@josephostrowski3866]

Nicely done!!

[@colzaidikari]

the tiny drill bits sell as 3d Printer nozzle cleaners.

[@TheBurzhui]

Great video. Really useful

[@michelebrooke3206]

How do you use the right angle driver? Can you go into how the accessories are actually used?

[@harrybachmann9815]

Love my Dremel although I do have a tendency to be rather hard on the tool and have gone through many over the years. Wasn't aware of those flap disks or the mini saw blade attachments.

[@CatusMaximus]

You can use a rotozip as a high power rotary tool

[@jeffreydennis4040]

This is such a great video!

[@leanonford]

Could you use a 2 inch sanding disc on a rotary tool? They only ever come with 1 inch versions so I just wondered?

[@soundwaynes3885]

my hobby is just collecting all kinds of dremel accesories

[@fabiandaroca]

Love your video! If you get a chance I would love to know where you got that metal box to hold your bits? I have so many and that looks like it can hold a lot.

[@rogertyler3237]

Thanks for sharing. Was helpfull.

[@mysciences]

Wow, awesome video thanks

[@TylerSnyder305]

The originals made in Racine Wisconsin were built so much better, but I will say that I do use my modern model 4000 a lot more since it's got the on / off + speed adjustment wheel. It and the Dremel workstation drill press stand are handy together, it's not good for extremely precise drilling since it's not a precisely made thing but it does help drilling small holes straight enough. The Dremel Moto tool from the 1970's I have is so much better made though, I doubt the " MADE IN MEXICO " #4000 will last nearly as long.

[@lohikarhu734]

Those pcb drills... i worked with a high-end PCB manufacturer, and these smallest drills run 170,000 rpm, or more...air bearing spindles, rather special electrical or air motors.

[@MissChelle]

Awesome video, thank you so much! Did you purchase these per piece or in a kit?

[@m.j.9627]

My comment is four years too late, but here it is anyway. I have needed to cut metals on more than a few occasions and my experience using Dremel's cutoff wheels is that the cheaper wheels with the single hole in the center are more reliable, even though they are spent quickly. The 'ez-lock' wheel shown at 13:14 is an attempt get more of your money by offering convenience. They require a special mandrel/chuck and even though they are fiber reinforced, they repeatedly fail (for me) right around the center area that mounts to the mandrel. My humble recommendation is to simply stick with the cheaper wheels. Wear your eye pro folks.

[@DigitalAndInnovation]

Really love how this covers EVERYTHING you can use! Curious if you know who makes that box you are storing the burs in? Also FYI- what you are calling dental burs look like they might actually be extraoral lab dental burs! Used for crown preparation and making dentures. Looks like you have a: 4 round , 6 round , 8 round, MAYBE a 2 round, what looks like a 557 (or something in that range), and a 35 inverted cone. Also some sort of straight fissure and some others I am not sure of. I use a chart by NeoBurr, but they are fairly standardized- its on their website if you need more info!

[@rogertyler3237]

I Bought A 6 Pack Of Saw Blades At Menards. IFor My Rotary Tool I've Never Used Them But Someday They Might Come In Handy.

[@richardpark7099]

What to use - "when" ...is my concern. I have all these little sanding disks and it's a "bitch" to cut off the ends of aluminum screws that poke through the plywood with things designed for sanding. They don't seem to differentiate between wood and metal use. How ya soze to know?The cutting wheels are priced to "gouge" the customer here in Canada, but what an ordeal to get someone behind the counter who actually knows anything. I ended up using the grinding wheel and what a noise that made - no complaints from the neighbours but it was a long process!

any real difference between the orange and blue grinding stones? Are they intended for different materials, or just different grit and the color indicates nothing?
