Creating perfect foam edges and bevels with the Dremel / rotary tool can be quite tricky. So here are a few handy tips on how to become a Dremel master quickly! I tried to show you the most difficult applications, which are clean beveled edges, raised ornaments and sharp corners. In addition, I mostly work on maximum speed with fast and straight moves over my EVA foam. Really hope this video is helpful! Let me know if you have any questions!

Please take kamuis words serious regarding safety. My stepfather worked without a mask for years and suffers from asthma now. Another person had his dremel drum snapped and it would have flown right into his eye if it wasn't for his safety goggles, which stopped the projectile.
Safety
Is
Key
This!
Safety First, is Safety BEST.
But what if you already have asthma? Guess I'm good to go! (Jk don't make it worse and wear the mask lel)
Paying the money for a good respirator is worth it, plus make sure you have good ventilation for the fumes www.allenamis.com/eva-foam-safety-tips/ just like a stormtrooper helmet, respirators only filter out particulates, not fumes.

Had a welding instructor once who said, “ you can always hold things with a prosthetic hand, you can stand on a prosthetic foot, YOU CANNOT SEE OUT OF A GLASS EYE.”
I also got a dremmel for christmas. My siblings were confused at my joy.
got the 4000 gen 1 i think almost 10 years ago, i use it for my hobbies and work to cut small screws or what ever stainless need to be adjusted. they are a great tuff tool.
I got a dremel for Christmas my cousins were confused accecpt for one that was also excited
How old are you? 😂
Me too dude💯🔥
Same XD
That censorship cracked me up. Great video and very helpful as always. You are awesome
There was censorship ? didnt even notice lol.
@@jody024 3:50
Omg bwuahaha funny!!!!
At 35,000 rpms, she has mastered the shaft. I'm surprised they did the censor the 4:00 mark as well.
It won my subscription... hilarious!
Seriously, this is the best channel on TH-cam
best corgi and cosplay prop making, but didnt cover too much on resin and other stuff YET
xXSoulDitzXx --- If she doesn't use the techniques, she probably won't show them.
I agree!
That way to dremmel the corner was mind blowing to me. It's always so hard but now I know how to approach it.
I have used a dremel for twenty years, but I still learned useful things from your sanding video. Thank you for the handy tips!
That "foam piece filter" at 03:57 is actually a brilliant idea... Several small foam pieces have gone MIA that way for me.
I actually built a dust collector box from plastic container, shop vac fed from below with a filter screen to block small parts. Works great to catch dust from larger pieces than just a hose. Got the idea from Punished Props.
Would an airbrush booth work?
I would love to see Svetlana making something with Adam Savage, that would be awesome!
But who would be more excited and giggling?!
@@TheZampa Why not both?
I was literally just having this problem, pop onto youtube for a break, and lo and behold you're a LifeSavER AGaiN
😭😭😭I'm literally working on my Ruby Rose scythe right now. You are a lifesaver!!!!
Mikayla Freeman this one is in my bucket list for a male ver. With a full retraction system for the scythe. Good luck on your build.
Good luck!!! I really want to cosplay her! I've already done yang and cinder lmao
I‘m actually building Qrow‘s Harbinger right now xD
Good Luck to you!!!
I wanna make my own rwby character
Mikayla Freeman good luck on it
JUST WHEN I WAS IN DIRE NEED OF BEVEL TUTORIALS
I bought my first dremel last summer and followed your tutorial to make D.Va's light gun. 😁 I'm a complete novice still but I think this tutorial was super helpful!
This came at the PERFECT time! I'm using a rotary tool tonight for the first time on the foam of my cosplay sword. THANKS!
I'm new to Dremels, but this thing has been great. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxfPgcZ5_Cl0HDUKkMJAKde11YKQZVgMoR The variable speed is awesome and the cordless aspect makes it so easy to work with. I am constantly finding uses for it that make tasks easier. Recently I put in a new deadbolt on one of our doors. I knew I had to enlarge the hold where the deadbolt goes into the door frame. At first I thought I would have to get a big router and figure out how to use it for that, but then I rermembered we have the dremel. I was able to enlarge the hole almost as easy as if I was drawing with a pen. It's also great for grinding our dog's nails done and so many other household tasks.
I need to leave a comment here because of how helpful this was for me. I was smoothing an EVA sword blade with my dremel, and I would run it both ways over the blade leaving me with with a complete uneven surface. As soon as I watched this video and tried out this technique, which I was skeptical about, I was surprised to see how smooth the blade had become. Thank you very much for all your videos, and keep up with the wonderful job you guys do!
i've just bought my first dremel. You're reading in my mind
I was literally dremeling when you uploaded this, great timing!
I've had a Dremel for a few years now but haven't had an actual excuse to use it yet! I'm so glad to see that you can use a Dremel on the eva foam to make textures and pieces
your enthusiasm for your craft makes me smile!
it's really cool to see your techniques and the things you can do with a dremel tool. 7:44 is super interesting, it really helps visualize what's possible with all those different tips!
thank you sooooo much for this video. I was super overwhelmed about sanding foam until i saw this. Your instructions were very easy to follow.
Yay! I'm so glad I'm not the only one who uses their dremel for the dog's claws. I started to use mine when I saw groomers use them. I thought, I already have a dremel so like I can do the dog's claws myself and save $20+
Lost me at "...so like..." Don't forget your booster! : )
How did you know I was getting frustrated with my dremel work for this costume?! 😁 Haha funny coincidence! Thanks for coming to the rescue with all your skills and positive attitude! ♥️
Best cosplay channel ever! Thank you guys so so so very much! :)
I got my dremel yesterday omg, I NEEDED THIS
I am just starting out and you are definitely inspiration. Thank you both!
Vacuuming while sanding EVA is an absolute must.
this is BY FAR my absoultely favourite tutorial you ever made! you made me so happy with this, thank you !!!
i knew i was doing something wrong when i tried to build my first armor but now i know how to fix it! thank you for all the tutorials and books, much love
HAHAHA the censor at 3:50 caught me off guard, but in all seriousness, the foam filter is a great idea. Loved the video!
Thank you sooo much for showing the correct way to use dremel! I was using in the opposite direction of rotation and pressing down too hard. I gave up for half a year because I did not know what was wrong!. I start using it again and feel so much better not hand sanding for hours thanks to you!!
I could literally binge watch your videos all day!! You do an amazing job demonstrating how you make your projects !
Wow! This actually timed out well for me. I'm working on an EVA foam project for next month and I got a Dremel not too long ago to work on it. I've never used a Dremel before and this video turned out to be really helpful and informative for me!
I purchased my Dremel 395 type 5 back in 2003 and it is still in use today, it's one of the best pieces of kit I have ever bought, I highly recommend the brand...
A BIG thank you to you and Benny. I appreciate all the content you provide. :)
I just love watching your videos because your presentation is so cheerful and charming, its like a therapy for me. Thank you.
I like going in the wrong direction with the dremel for making damage marks ;)
Thanks for posting this! It's always neat to see the way you do things.
Thank you very much ! I was afraid try to use my dremel... but I watch a last time you video and it helps me alot feeling safe and doing it the right way :)
I got a Proxxon dremel not too long ago & felt so stupid when I couldn't really sand my foam crafts. Now I'm excited to approach that again & hopefully get better results with all I've learned from you- thank you 😄❤
wow this is so helpful!! i got a dremel (sorry, non dremel brand rotary tool) pretty recently and i've been having some trouble approaching stuff like corners and even just edges. thank you so much!!
I'm loving the dremel part of foam smithing the most!
I mostly use a standard sanding drum for carving and a small grinder disc for cuts.
Works really great for creatures and most things
I live and breathe by my dremel tool, always trying different tips for whatever effect or groove I'm going for, that being said I've only been practicing for a month or three and its always nice to watch videos like these to understand more of these tools.
Soldering tools used to be my go-to but, I feel I get cleaner results with the dremel.
omg this video dropped just as i was starting to get frustrated with my dremel lol. my costume requires long strips of beveled foam and this video just saved my life.
Svetlana is so adorable.
i just got my dremel, this was super useful!
This video was extremely educational. Thank you!
This is actually really helpful for the costume I’m making, everything on ur channel helps me, even watching ur making cosplay videos are helpful, it shows me how to do things and what to get.
Extremely informative and helpful! Thank you!
That anthem helmet is awesome great job
Thank you for the video. I had a dremel for a long time. I did had some issues with it on the foam getting those rough edges. I tried it again today for a part of my Mandulorian armor piece. Still have the problem. then i did tried the one direction before watching the video. It worked a bit. Then I decided to watch your video on how to work the dremel and see if i was doing it correctly. It is fun to have the tool. I will for sure try other tips on the scrap foams I have. Thank you so much for the Battastic videos.
I'm not nearly as experienced as you are, so I find comfort in knowing we share the same preferred size/grit sanding drum.
You are so cute! I love your energy. 😊
I am about to start my very first cosplay project with EVA foam, and found your video while looking for info on the best Dremmel. This was so helpful for me. Thank you!! Can’t wait to watch more of your videos!
These videos are so valuable!
LOVE THE VIDEOOOOO! Always wondered how you made it seem so easy to sand foam...now I know. Thank you very much :3
You are an adorable goofball of pure energy and creativity. We love you! xD
I'm new to this channel, my mother bought me your books and I never knew you also had a youtube channel. I am going to be completely honest-
you sound exactly like how I thought you would in your book, and I just???I love it??? It inspires me and brightens my day hearing it. I already know I'm going to love this chennel.
Just bought my first dremel and I’m so excited to use EVA foam to bring my craft to the next level!
Ya got ta start with basics, like not putting metal and actually sewing properly though
Your tip on the vacuum cleaner combo was really helpful 👌
Thank you for making this! I've recently gotten a dremel and my dremel skills aren't great. Your tips are useful!
Don't worry, even experienced people like her had to start somewhere.
Answered questions... Yes 😁 Thank you.
Now to practice!!! *puts on dust mask, fires up rotary tool*
Ok have to add.
Before:
Rotary tool 10000 rpm 😕
Going any direction 😥
After video:
Rotary tool 35000 rpm max speed 👍😁
Going in direction of spin 👍😁
Now I have 9 days to make first foam cosplay happen 😱
I have the best tip for anyone new to crafting with foam......just do everything Svetlana tells you!
Awesome content & advice. Most definitely helpful and informative. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
You have earned yourself a new patron. Really love your work.
Thanks so much!!
Very good safety instructions , but you did miss one item .
Hearing protection . With all of the machines running especially the Drimel . The Drimel's higher pitch motor can cause a ringing in your ears after long use .
I've been using the Drimel and other small power tools for most of my life and I have a form of tendonitis from NOT using ear plugs or padded sound dampeners like what you see at an enclosed pistol range .
tinnitus*
tendonitis is inflammation of a tendon
@@mrqueem1703
Thanks for the catch .
I only watched this entire video because I am loving the accent!
the tip about corners is EXACTLY what i've been looking for! had a lot of tabs open before finding this lol
I've been waiting for a Dremel video! Thanks!
So helpful for makin' detailed props. Thanks for the fun tutorial!
Thank you! I have been trying to learn how to use my dremel. I wish it came with instructions on what all those bits are for, but I bought mine used.
Needed this little boost of confidence at the end!
I just got a machine like this (the bulky one cause I'm still suffering from financial problems) This video was really useful, Thank you
Got me a rotary tool today, this vid really gave me a solid footing. Also, your books are life savers!
I soooo needed it! Now I know what I was doing wrong, thank you so much!
Corners are the worst thing, thanks for this
This was fantastic and so helpful!
I've been using a rottary tool for a while and I usually set it for minimum speed. No wonders, why the process of sanding is always slow for me. Thanks for your video!
Gonna pump those numbers up
Thank you for such a useful video!!
You uploaded this video at a perfect time! I’m just about to sand my prop with my dremel too!! Thank you
Really useful thank you. I'm making a plastazote crashpad/dashboard top for a classic car restoration project. Perfect technique for forming foam and the Dremel is genuis. :)
Great video.
Most romantic christmas present 🥰
I cant believe you make these videos free
I never used the flexible attachment but seen your results.... I will try definitely.
How did you know I needed this video at this exact moment !!
I can feel it in my belly
Hey this video was made on my birthday
Wonderful video, I've been dremmeling against the direction the whole time.
Thank you, Kamui!!!!
You saved my summer cosplay work thank you!!!
I’ve said this before, but you really are the best!
I like how you blurred the end of the vacuum hose that time. Funny edits are funny!
Benni's idea haha
ahh i get it now , for some reason i have been doing the exact opposite of what i should have been doing . both slow and in the wrong direction , thanks kamui
I love the video, they are getting better and better! Thanks for your hard work, I love watching what are you creating
This will help with my many cosplays and other crafting ideas thanks alot.
You guys are just awesome!!!.
This was suuuuper helpful! Thank you so much ❤ You are fantastic!
This is a great video, thank you!
i really needed this! thanks for this vid!
Waiting on my dremel to arrive and im excited to use it for the first time!! Doing my research on using it haha, wish me luck 😊 thanks for this vid!
You read my mind!
YES I NEEDED THIS
In place of a dremel I use an old electric nail file from school lol it does the same thing basically except you can switch the direction the bit rotates with a switch and it has a foot pedal you can use instead of the on off switch. It's really a great slim option, plus carbide nail bits are amazing!
35,000 RPM makes the sanding/cutter HOT ! also pick goggles that have some venting. Eye Glasses fog up QUICKLY ! Great dust collection !
I needed this video a week ago! I just got a dremmel and have been trying to make a helmet out of eva foam. It's working for the most part but it would have been better if I have seen this video first.
Sorry! xD
