The Best Rotary Tool
The Proxxon is really what these things ought to be. It's very quiet and smooth, much more so than any Dremel. The tool also lasts, and anyone who's gone through Dremel's like kleenex knows what I'm talking about. With the Dremel, it seems the variable speed control is among the first things to go, but the Proxxon is simply a better tool. I use these things *hard*, cutting and grinding metal, building and modifying small DC motors, and I was lucky to get 6 months out of the best Dremel. The Proxxon is the one to get...without a doubt. I always use the chuck for convenience. The collets may be more precise, but for a hand held tool, there's no real reason to NOT use a chuck. Even the Proxxon accesories are a setp up from most of the Dremel accesories BTW, Hardware Sales is the place to get the Proxxon. . Price and service has always been top notch!
