"rotary tool for pet nail grooming" 2010-08-03
By Charlie (Texas)
We use a rotary tool for trimming the toenails on our dogs. We've gone through several brands and models, and this one seems the best combination of easy to hold, relatively quiet, and reasonable cost. They usually last about as long as they are warrantied for (2 years I think). In a less dusty service, they might last quite a bit longer. We quit using Dremel many years ago because they cost a lot more, usually only come with a lot of expensive accessories, and don't last any longer.

"A Fine Rotary Tool" 2010-08-03
By James L. Trombla (Dallas, TX)
I've had no trouble with the RTX-B 3. I didn't need a variable speed tool; three speeds is fine for what I do. Don't know why anyone would need more than three speeds. I have purchased numerous Dremel attachments which fit just fine. I not only like the tool, I love the price.

"Great deal" 2010-08-01
By this guy
This tool is so much cheaper than comparable Dremel products, it's ridiculous. It's definitely worth it. I use mine for cutting and sanding all the time, it's very convenient. It comes with sanding drums but no cutoff wheels, but Dremel products are all compatible and you can get a set of cutoff wheels for cheap.

"Just what I needed!" 2010-07-26
By ILikeTools (Central Jersey, USA)
My Dremel 395 failed after about 10 years and I didn't want a big kit full of accessories since I already had that from the Dremel. The longer you have one of these things around, the more you find yourself reaching for it to do all kinds of things, so I really missed it! Dremel's price for just the tool is high these days (though they're still made in U.S.A) so I looked around and found the Black & Decker one at close to half the price of the Dremel equivalent (the B&D is made in China; wish they were made here, but it must be the reason for the price difference). It's somewhat larger and heavier than the Dremel, but not enough to be cumbersome. I've had no problems using it. It's well thought-out. I like the design of the chuck lock and speed control. It feels solid and well-made. One thing that I was pleased to find is that the ring behind the chuck that you unscrew to put on some attachments is the same thread size as the Dremel, so I can still use my Dremel chain saw sharpening attachment, and it looks like anything else that needs that mounting arrangement should work with this one also; incidentally, so does the flex-drive attachment that came in my Dremel kit. The tool doesn't fit well into the bottom of the drawstring bag that came with it; it's just a bit too long, but it can be gotten in there at an angle if you wish. I don't plan to keep it in there anyway, and the few accessories packaged with it are really elementary, but as I said I was just after the tool itself so that's fine. I would have bought it alone if they offered it that way. All-in-all, I'd recommend this to anyone who needs one.

"Black & Decker is back!" 2010-07-05
By deadraven666 (Florida)
Let me say for starters that I haven't been a big Black/Decker fan for a long time(Black and Decker quit making tough power tools around 1990-1991).If I wanted a power drill currently....I'd buy a expensive/sturdy drill.Secondly,I've used Dremel 395 models for a long time,yes I've found them to be expensive but they do the job.So what could be better than a Dremel tool?A Black & Decker RTX-these are twice the motor power of a Dremel Tool,very well designed and comfortable to use(has a very nice rubber grip for extensive handling options during use),has a universal collet to except a massive range of dremel and aftermarket accessories(including a threaded section for the Flex Shaft),and a cool Flip Lock system to making changing bits a one-handed operation.Did I mention the RTX is half the price of a Dremel Tool.This tool is huge competition against Dremel,and my hopes for the RTX model is that it will become a main staple by Black/Decker and more advanced models will be released years down the road.Get a B&D RTX and save yourself some money :)

"Maybe good for plastic." 2009-11-17
By L. Ballard (Utah)
The first one I used went dull in about 20 seconds. It barely left a mark on the glass I was working with. The next one I used was on soft metal. Very unimpressive. You get what you pay for. Buy Ryobi drills if you want to grind through glass.

"Good deal for the price" 2009-03-12
By Charlie Howard (Wine Country, USA)
This set of 20 bits costs less than one high-quality diamond bit from other sources, and the bits did the job for which they were purchased.

Used them to drill two 1/8 inch diameter holes in non-tempered window glass. This must be done slowly to avoid overheating and possibly fracturing the glass. Used several different bits to change shapes in the hope of making it go faster. When done, the holes were fine and all of the bits still seemed to have their abrasive surfaces.

I've read elsewhere that a high-quality diamond bit will last for perhaps three holes like these, and that it takes about two minutes to make one hole. Well, it took about 30 minutes per hole, but more than half of that time was spent pausing to let the glass and bit cool off. Since all of the bits still have diamond grit on them, it seems likely that they'll be able to make several more holes before wearing out.

NOTE: Tempered glass probably will shatter if drilled. This window didn't have a "tempered" logo in the corner and looked normal when viewed through polarized sunglasses.

"Good Buy If You Want To Move To The EZ Lock System" 2010-08-03
By Tom D (Columbus, OH United States)
Dremel doesn't help much making the decision to pay the price for this package or the one that's half the price. I have both. This is the best deal if you want to use the EZ-Lock system or need a new EZ-Lock arbor, which makes sense if you cut a lot of metal. or do a lot of sanding or polishing. The real parts count in this kit is sanding drums and disks and polishing wheels.

The case is OK, but it's plastic and won't survive a drop. There's a small amount of unused space in the case.

The Dremel 697-06 doesn't include any EZ Lock parts, but does include a good selection of metal cutoff wheels that mount on a standard arbor.

If you already have the EZ-Lock arbor, you may be better off buying only the parts you need.

If you don't use the EZ-Lock system, 697-06 is a much better value.

"Perfect Addition" 2010-07-21
By Jack of all Trades, Master of None
One of the smartest purchases I've ever made. First of all the "EZ lock" accessary alone is worth $15.00, and you get that plus 7 different types of wheels to use with it. Assortment of mandrels is great, you won't need to buy sanding accessories for a while too, 35 #60 grit drums, 35 #120 Grit, Sanding, polishing, cutting, buffing, sharpening, etc. Not to mention all the sanding disks, This is the one kit you need for your rotory tool. Beleive me you won't need anything else, even if you just get the kit and store it awaw for "just in case" it will not be a waste of cash, you "will" need something from this set maybe at a later time, but you will need/use it. I'd bet on that.

"Dremel Plunge Router Base Poor Design" 2010-07-17
By David A. Watkins (Geneso, IL USA)
Do not waste your money on this poorly made plunge router base. I found that the cheap plastic construction allowed the Dremel to wobble thus making accurate cuts, especially straight lines very dificult. When lowering the Dremel using the plunge feature, one side or the other will stick and cause the whole assembly to bind. I threw this base in the trash and bought Stewmac's metal router base that has an air blower accessary which is a great system. You can make clear plastic special purpose bases and attach them easily to the Stewmac. I build guitars so accuracy is important.

"Nice idea, poor execution" 2010-05-26
By Barry E. Russ
Well, I just loved this thing for about a year, then the screw to hold the depth constant, the handle screw, not the depth screw completely failed. Now I can only use it as a plunge router. It will not hold for a set depth anymore. That makes for a very limited tool. I have read the reviews for the alternate "knockoff" version, and am not impressed, so I'll guess I'll have to bite the bullet and buy another one like this. I would gladly pay double for a unit that is built better, because I end up buying 2 instead of having one good one. That one will eventually fail too.

"DOES work with Dremel 10.8V Li Ion cordless" 2010-04-30
By ISaidThat (USA)
It turns out that this DOES work with the Dremel 10.8 v Li Ion model (AKA, the 800 or 8000 model)! The literature that came with my cordless Dremel claimed that the two don't work together. However, I nervously purchased the plunge router attachment from a Home Depot which was advertising the two as working together and it turns out that they do! I just tried it and the cordless model screwed into the attachment perfectly. I routed several grooves successfully using the plunge router and the included edge guide.

My biggest complaint is the following: The clamps that secure the edge guide are not very secure, so the guide slowly slipped without my realizing it, resulting in about a 1-2 mm difference in the location of the groove I was cutting between start and finish on one piece of wood. Once I knew that this was I risk, I was just very careful to tighten all the clamps as much as I possibly could and it didn't happen again.

It would also be nice to have an easier method of adjusting and measuring the depth and distance along the edge guide without having to use external measurement tools.

Make sure you take note of the depth lock on the handle. It's very useful for locking in a depth without having to hold down the router against the springs.

Other than that, it works as I would expect it to and I'm pleased with my purchase. Although I have the router bit collection, I so far have only used the attachment with one of the high speed carving bits to make a pencil thin decorative groove in the edge of a picture frame. I was only using basswood, so I can't say how it would stand up to a more strenuous challenge.

"Nice idea, doesn't really work" 2010-04-29
By Andrew Jackson (MD, USA)
This attachment sounded perfect for the model making and dolls' house building I want to do. Thought I'd be able to do some nice box joints with an appropriate jig. Some problems - (1) you can't use standard screw in guide bushings, (2) even if you could get the bit centered on the base, it moves when you cut, so you get wiggly cuts, even with the edge guide (this is presumably why they don't give you guide bushings with any kind of tolerance).

Save you money towards a real router.
