50 different attachments for all kinds of tasks. Anybody have one?

This same model? What projects have you done with it?

I purchased this used last week. Amazing tool. Have had a lot of fun working with it on a few woodworking projects.

Dremels are great tools! I have used one at the company I used to work for many times, they can do all sorts of amazing things :D

I was stupid to not check the attachments when I bought it. About ten of them are broken/worn, so I'll need to buy replacements.

The best thing about it is there are many tools I don't need anymore and many I won't need to buy. It's a great all-in-one tool.

Yeah I've always wanted to make a wooden statue of a saint, I think a dremel would get the job done nicely.

Yep! Where do you get the plans for that? Or are you gifted?

I'm making a Jєωelry box right now with a secret compartment.

No plans per se, I would just do my best to be extremely careful, studying some art books regarding proportion-ism would be helpful so you dont make a huge head and little arms of something.

It depends on what you define as gifted, but I do think I am well inclined towards art, although I haven't honed my skills with statue making, but it would be a good profession I think, there is money to be made there for sure, especially if you're talented because you could use the initial statue to make copies in concrete or plaster and sell those copies :scratchchin:
