Review on Hamineler Diamond Cutting Wheel Set: 30 Pcs with Different Sizes and Mandrel for Precise Rotary Tool Cutting by Matthew Sytniak

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Cool little wheels!

I'm trying my hand at stone carving with a rotary tool and bought this set to add to the small collection of diamond burrs I now have and I'm very impressed with them! I haven't worked much with rotary tools, just a bit of cutting, sanding and polishing 3D printed parts, and I've never used cutting wheels on rotary tools. So I don't have a very firm hand and struggle to keep the cutting tool on a straight path. Despite my lack of dexterity I have not broken any of these wheels and although I have only used two and have only partially cut a few rocks with these wheels none of the wheels are worn and I only dip my working stone in water occasionally hence those Discs primarily designed for dry cutting. cutting too long without stopping to allow the burr to cool, and so on. I haven't been gentler with these diamond blades, but I haven't had to replace either of the two I've used! So I am very happy with these diamond blades and expect each one to last a decent amount of time.

Pros
  • It can get very hot when cutting. Adding water can extend the life of the diamond blade.
Cons
  • unreliable
