I have Dremels and Foredoms and they do different things. The Foredom doesn't have the bit speed of a Dremel or similar, so its less useful. I use mine Foredom for routing finish off the top for my bridges, and for a nice light router fixture for cutting the side tool paths on my arm and rib rests. But I use the Dremel for most other things because it has a higher bit speed. The Foredom only gets up to 18,000rpm.

Update: Sent in my broken Dremel from the 80's.... they replaced it with a rebuilt 3000 model... for less than $21, and that's with shipping included. You just can't beat that price. I think my two other Dremels are headed back to Racine....


You can't beat customer sevice and product support like that. It would certainly make me consider buying one of their tools in the future. Thanks Chris!
