My dad has a dremel hand held tool. I am not familar with this tool. Will it drill holes for control panel buttons? Will it drill through wood? plastic? thin steel? aluminum??? plexi? thanks |

A dremel could do it with some of the various attachments out there for it, but a drill and drillbit would be the best choice. And FYI, you can re-name the topic, just modify the original post. If you do that though you may want to remove your second post to avoid confusion. |

They are not really made for that type of operation. The chuck is too small for the bits you need to do it right, and the motor doesn't have enough torque to move much wood. They are designed more for grinding type stuff than drilling. To drill with it, you'd have to basically grind out the hole to get it the right size. If you can get access to a drill, you'll finish it much better, and alot quicker. |

Yeah, all you need is a drill, and a 1.125 (1 and 1/8th) inch hole saw... that will make short work of drilling control panel holes. |
