can anyone recomend a quality rotary tool
Hoagie_one:
Thats also on the cheap?
I was gonna get the $25 model from walmart yesturday but decided it best to consult others first
AceTKK:
Go for a Dremel. I've had mine for years with no problems at all. They're relatively cheap too, I think.
pointdablame:
Amazon has single speed Dremels for $40ish, variables for $20 more or so.
You can also usually find good deals on the Craftsman rotary tools that Sears carries. I've had a Craftsman for 5 or so years now probably, and it's never had a problem. I'd say they are just as reliable as Dremels, and can use Dremel accessories as well.
PetitMorte:
I also have the craftsman. Mine broke recently... the linkage between the motor and the bit shredded. (It's a soft plastic tube designed to shred and save the motor)
So I took it back into a sears to see about getting a new part for it, and the guy took it and handed me a new one and said thanks.
sears's craftsman tools replacement policy *ROCKS*!!!
Stingray:
I have a two speed Dremel. Don't know what it cost, as it was a xmas gift. In any case it's a very well made and very handy tool to own. I can recomend it highly.
