Dremel Clone heads up.

[Zammo]

An early heads up. Aldi will be selling Dremel Clones from the 13th December, I think they will cost about £15 with the accessory kits about £4.

The website has pictures of them on the 'Xmas gift guide' pdf.

Just thought I'd bump this topic because I got the date wrong, they are going to be available on the 13th December.

A word of caution. Dremel collets are a wee bit too small to fit in this chuck if it's the same as the one I got last year. It works fine, but you'll be stuck with the collet that comes with it.
I did some experiments with packing it out so the outer screw closes the Dremmel collet tight and it worked, but it was a faff changing tools. It's fine for the money though. The accessories are good though.

Burnt my Whirlwind Wizard out making one of Waylands hobbo stoves last week for a mate, this should do the trick nicely

Managed to get my hands on one. Then promptly broke the drill bit with the dremels first use.

Then again it was my fault I thought I was using the 'cutter' tool. Plus I did use it to cut plastic when it's designed for tile cutting (though I would of thought plastic would be no problem).
