Don't go there. :P

With my back, and the prescription drugs I 'neck' every day.....That would be something of a waste.

A drum of 209kg!

Suppose it makes sense to buy a week's worth at a time.

I'm sure it will be, Nobby.

(I failed the original test on how to fit the wossname, onto the Dremmel.  :-[..But I've sussed it now...Huzzah !  :-bd.....Had to change the collet and pull the 'spring' back from the flexishaft ....THEN I could tighten the fitting on the Dremmel, itself.)

Be interesting to see how it changes the way you work. I find the flexi-hose thing makes the Dremel much lighter, so I can control it better.

You, with your sinewy, calloused, cut-about hands, are probably so adept a wafting the full weight Dremmel around, that you'll probably start off by overcompensating.

Collett - That's a strange word.

In my teens I had a crush on a girl called Collett

One question I've got.....

The vids I've looked at on YouTube, give the impression that you MUST 'dangle' the flexishaft, and not have it lying across the table-top.
I'm assuming, that's from a safety point of view.....Anybody just ignore this 'tip' ?

I can probably use a drawer handle to do this, if it's critical.

Plasters on standby.  :D

Which bit rotates?

I'm sure the one I got (which I have never used) came with a stand thing to hang the dremal from.

The end of the 'pen' like do-dah, Forbes.

The Dremmel itself, rotates a springy like thing through the flexishaft to the aforementioned 'pen'. (Damn....I'm SO good at explaining things... X_X)

I have just left the Dremel laying there, but it would probably Vibrate across a smooth the desk top. When I used it last the dremel was laying on the carpet so would not move.

Perhaps put Dremel in a box or draw to stop it moving

Thanks, Mark.

If I find its really necessary, I'll just screw a cup hook into the desk somewhere, and dangle it from there.
(The desk isn't precious, so I won't get into trouble.  :D)

When using the flexible shaft (their name, not mine) I hang the Dremel itself from the drill stand.  Just stops the Dremel skittering away.
