I've had one of these for about a year now, it's a great bit of kit and I've done a lot with it. Although, I must admit, user error on my part.. I never thought about going in "stages" to get a deeper cut. Makes sense really, now I know why my Dremel bits heat up and scores the wood. They say you learn something new every day.. Today I learned common sense with this kit lol. Thank you!

Thanks I've been wondering the same thing I just got one of these and I was afraid I should have got the stewmac one

Hi! this base works well if there is space. I find it limiting for instance for routing an inlay on a guitar headstock because the base collides with nut or fretboard. for this sth like the stew Mac one is better suited I believe.

I bought a Router from Aldi many years ago and it has served me well. Now I'm retired and only fiddle about making small things for fun. I often use the trusty Dremel for various tasks. The little black one is okay but prone to moving off line and not so stable. Having seen this video I'm going to order one of these plungers for my Dremel as it looks pretty sturdy and a lot lighter than using a more commercial sized one. going to see what other videos you've done as I quite like the way you present them.

[@bhartissimo]

I had one of those. Tried using it for an inlay but found the plastic bits a little fiddly. Ended up selling it and getting a Stewmac precision router base instead. To be fair, the Stewmac base costs quite a bit more and it doesn't plunge, so depending on what you need to do and how you use it, the Dremel base may be a useful option.

[@KingBespokeCreations]

It took a bit of getting used to, how to set the depth stop etc. but worth it.

[@jrdyer28]

Mine lasted 2 months. The knob for tightening it and keeping it at the depth you want it at striped and shortly after, the nuts that the knob screwd into came right out of the whole thing.

If you want to keep your dremel horizontally on a table this can help with it. It's a bummer the flat surface is on the wrong side for optimal use and there's no way to make it level without some additional blocks and pieces but it simplifies things. Also, it needs to be clamped down for that use case.

I am constantly finding uses for it that make tasks easier. Recently I put in a new deadbolt on one of our doors. I knew I had to enlarge the hold where the deadbolt goes into the door frame. At first I thought I would have to get a big router and figure out how to use it for that, but then I rermembered we have the dremel. I was able to enlarge the hole almost as easy as if I was drawing with a pen. It's also great for grinding our dog's nails done and so many other household tasks.
