I thought it would cost about ten dollars.

I figured a try for light grinding and polishing would be worth about ten bucks rather than spending significantly more for a comparable Dremel tool. Unfortunately, this tool is completely powerless and cannot even polish lightly without snagging or stalling completely. If it weren't in one of those plastic packages that don't open and take forever to open, I would send it back. The various attachments are ok - not worth ten bucks but I will be using them with a dremel which I will eventually…

Pros
  • Tools & Housewares
Cons
  • Doubtful purchase for seniors

Small, small, tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny.

This is a lightweight tool ONLY! Even the instructions say something like "easy to attach tool" etc. I had to laugh when I saw how small it is. Only 5 inches long including collet. clamped like a dremel. As another reviewer wrote, this is available elsewhere for $9.99. At this price it's a good deal. If you don't have a branch of this company nearby, this is the next best way to get one Also the instructions are small and the print is small. It takes a good pair of eyes to read them. My rotary…

Pros

I mean so wobbly it looks like 2 spikes when working instead of one

I don't even want to give this thing a star. It's garbage. I bought it to do rough wood carving (I use a briar block). Let's start with the brass fastener (which goes into the chuck and holds the bit). It broke as soon as the circular cutter touched the wood. So maybe such a device is not intended for use on a tree? This broken piece makes the racket tip wobble. *imagine doing something with a wobbly tool). I mean so wobbly that when working it looks like 2 spikes instead of one. Really sucks…
