I bought a Dremel
Benevolance:
After watching Manny Malholtra take a puck in the eye, I wear safety goggles all the time.
The Dremel was excellent carving out the new marquee on my arcade cabinet. It took a little while to get the hang of it. I find it very useful for smaller jobs, where I don't want to bother getting out a larger, better tool.
My kit has a gazillion attachments. I do not know what half of them do. It's great that they color coded the sandpaper/grinding attachments, but it would have been even better if the book wasn't in black and white. It will take me a while to sort out which attachments are most useful for what purpose. In the meantime, I think I found an attachment for writing forum posts, but it isn't working very well. Maybe it's not compatible with my monitor? All I get is a lot of scratches and smoke.

Yeah you can double up those fragile cutting discs as Xiaou2 says, less shattering. Sometimes the stronger reinforced cutting wheels are too big for the job. I like using mine with the flexible extension for more control. They have their uses, somewhere in my current project I used mine to cut off all these screw ends on the inside of panels I'd made, worked a treat. I'm not very impressed with the router bits which are really pricey and messy to use, but then I don't use the special little jig you're meant to use with them either.

That will just be a driver issue, you need to download the latest one compatible with your OS :P
