Dremel 4000 - buy or not to buy?
 

I wanted to get some advice before I buy a Dremel. I assume it is the 4000 or a cordless 8200. Are there any better imitators about or is this about as good as it gets. I am going to use it to remove individual tiles from the shower cubicle as some have cracked and as the water is seeping in and so more expansion and cracking. :moan:

It is driving me mad. I have other uses for it too so hopefully not a complete waste of money.

Any comments from users - ?

Just smash each tile cearfully then pick out the pieces

petrol Still saw

Would that be a saw that is not moving or should I try a Stihl?

I brought a Dremel 4000 Multitool inc 65 piece accessories. (Comes with hard case) Paid £101 inc delivery back in 2011. Brilliant and powerful kit Revs from 5,000-35,000 RPM.. "Goes through bone like butter!"

Personally think Dremel worth the extra £, had mine now(not a 4000?) for over 15yrs - no problems - Fantastic :thumbs:
...you'll find yourself polishing and cutting things you didn't know you had - mine has helped rebuild a Norton Commando & 90% of a Westfield amongst other things :wanker: (there wasn't a-get-a-life smilie)

Cheers KarbonKid, it is probably a little more erganomic to use within the confines of a shower cubicle whether I am standing still/Stihl or not and even if on the phone :whistle:.

As Vic says, but get a dremel anyway they are great:thumbs: you can use it to strim the grout out carefully:smokin:

They're really handy for a spot of polishing on the oil filter housing and Vanos unit too... :wink:
