    I actually use a Sears Craftman rotary tool. Craftsman warranty is top notch. I've seen them take back a wrench purchased in the 70's. I would go with as much variable speed as you can afford. I like the ones with a variable speed lever marked off,1,2,3,4,5.

    And I must stress the safety glasses. Don't go cheap on those. At least $15 - a bargain for keeping your eyeballs intact.

    Get the one that fits your budget and don't cheap out. Avoid the cordless ones.

    I'll second that on the cordless Dremel mine works great, I use an old electric one for major cutting and the new battery one for everything else.

    Each to his own... I think the huge battery off of the back is a pain. I use the snake attachment most of the time since I can't stand holding the normal part. It's so bulky.[]

    I have an XPR if anyone's interested. Things a beast and beauty at the same time.[] I love all the attachments I can use now too. Beats having to go to the woodshop of my school just to do one cut.[]

    ...I have even sometimes, after working on a car when I didnt bleed, cut myself and thrown blood at the car to make sure it worked properly.<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote"></font id="quote">

    Do you give your clients a free carwash with that? []
