PSA: Cheap Dremel on Amazon

Amazon have the 10.8V cordless Dremel for £47 instead of £99 at the moment. Cheapest I have ever seen them! Mine arrived today and it is noticeably more powerful than my 7.2v version. Buy quick as the deal was on over the weekend, so could end soon. A check on camelcamelcamel shows this is the cheapest they have ever been by some margin.

You need to change the vendor to Amazon.

Not in stock. Says due in on the 30th but I’d be a bit sceptical. Great tool and would be fantastic at that price though.

£95.49 now?

If you look at the vendors, there is still an Amazon option for £47. It’s out of stock right now, but they will honour the price when the stock arrives (which in my experience of Amazon is pretty soon).

Thanks! Was looking to buy a dremel soon so have ordered it. So can you now tell me all the cool things you can do with this. I just wanted something for sharpening blades so have no clue what else you can use this gadget for.

To be honest myti, this is not the best thing for sharpening blades on anything you want to be properly sharp. The contact area is small, so it’s hard to get an even edge. It’s brilliant for sharpening hoes, lawnmower blades or getting a rough edge on stuff, but I would never use it to sharpen a proper knife. Dremels are great for many other things where you need to grind or cut. This dremel comes with the quick click mandrel and two cutting discs.

It’s for mower/hedge cutter blade not knives I wanted it and general diy

What sort of thing would you cut with it out of interest. Feel some diy coming on this Christmas 😀

cheers, just ordered. Free delivery as well 🙂

Christmas pressie to myself (from the kids) 😉

Loads of uses when you get going. Great for cutting slots into rounded or paint filled screws. Handy for removing padlocks should the need arise. Polishing, shaping and sharpening. Being cordless is a big plus too.

Dremel.

The one tool that does loads of jobs. Pretty badly.

I’ve yet to find something it’s better at than the right tool.

I have somehow ended up with 2 and I’ve never bought one and I can’t think of an occasion i used them

Die grinder is far better and it has a shaft size that means I don’t have I use the expensive toy sized bits.

Cheers, just ordered. Thanks for the psa

Thanks ordered, foo barred my original one a few months back and couldn’t justify a replacement.
