Re: Dremel alternatives

Rab
check out the Proxxon range www.proxxon.de I have both Proxxon and
Dremel and I reckon its like comparing a Chevy to a Merc. They are
priced about the same and bits are interchangable. Proxxon also have
a very nice angle driver, angle grinder, belt sander, delta sander,
etc.
