    I'm currently considering getting a dremel tool. However it seems like there are a couple different ones to choose from and I'm not really sure what to get. Basically I'm looking to get one that I can use to cut plastic for retrofitting headlights and similar tasks. What would be the best one?

    that will work, they sell all sorts of tools for them too. good tool to have.


    my last one i used pretty much solely as a dog nail trimmer, put a sanding drum on the end and grind the dogs nails down slowly so they dont heat up to much. at a med speed. if you dogs not scared of the sound that is. my dog was fear less, ask him he wanted his nails cut with the dremil in my hands and he would just lay down and wait for it lol. i had a good dog. same thing for his ears, he loved having them cleaned, used moan like a pro lol.

    Haha. Nice. I'm thinking I will just get a kit thing with it with assorted accessories so I can do various things with it.

    I'm an anti-dremel guy...give me a Roto-zip
    Although the dremel worked nice when I was etching a design in my old computer window

    Roto-zip? Never heard of it. Ive heard good things about Dremel so I figured I would probably stick with them.
