There might be one part you don't have yet! I found it recently when someone close passed away and left a Dremel set. It contained an original Dremel mount that had LED lights embedded and doesn't use a battery, but the rotation of the shaft to power the LED's. It's genius. You place a special ring on the shaft with a magnet that's polarized in such a way that the LED housing inside coil can generate power for the LEDs like a dynamo with induction.
That's interesting! I have a couple LM1 LED Light Attachments, but I believe those have batteries. I don't really use them just because my work station is well lit. I'm curious why I haven't seen your version with the newer models!
@@LogsCarvingClub I expect them to be discontinued. I found an Amazon listing where people complained about the LED tool addition because the magnetic ring that is used to generate the power for the LEDs sometimes came loose while working and started to heat up by friction. I haven't noticed this myself but I think that there were too many issues with it. It's called the "Dremel 677 Dremelite Rotary Tool Work Light". If you Google that, you'll find some info on it :)
@@LogsCarvingClubProbably because nowadays batteries and LED's have become so cheap. Any supplier can get you parts for a battery-operated light, but a dynamo-type system requires custom parts (and engineering). Shame that such elegant solutions are not considered cost effective anymore.

You can prolong the life of a sanding drum 4 times if you use "abrasive cleaning stick". Those remove tar and oils from sandpaper which are the usual reason for clogging. Normally they are for grinder belts, but work on dremel bits as well, just use the lowest speed.
Beginner here, greener'n spring grass. You are helping this newbie so much. Even when you ran out of script. I actually turned the volume off for a while and I still understood what you were doing! I'm going to love my dremel! LOVE your board of bits n bobs, too!
This video was very helpful! For me there was many new accessories! I'm 43 so I prolly got my first dremel over 20 years ago, it died some time ago so now I have two copies, but they work just as well, but to a very reduced cost. One of the most useful things YT have become to me is teaching what many tools and bits are for and how to use them. It doesn't matter how many schools or educations you go to, they never teach you everything! Then there is always those that have tips and tricks that they came up with them selves.
Similar story here. Because not having a decent male figure in my life and being an IT nerd, I'm learning how to use many tools including my 3 dremels.. Also this week learning how to do a major service on my car 💪

Top Video! A tip regarding the black (brown) exploding discs that are intended for cutting and are always included. If you use two discs at the same time instead of one, you will get a wider cut, but the pieces will break much less often. Nevertheless, you should let the disc cut and not try to speed it up by applying pressure. This tip should be worth its weight in gold, especially for people with little sensitivity.
Just wanted to let you know that if you have a problem with soft metal gumming up your bits. You can always use a block of certain waxes, just touch the bit to it as you are grinding on the soft metal and it will spit the stuck metal right out. Or nine times out of ten, you can use cutting oil on the bit that you are using on metal. In saying that, just put a little cutting oil on the bit or the metal "aluminum" you are working on and you will not run into those problems anymore. Plus it will cut your grind or work time in half. No Dremel pun intended. Just found your channel, love what you do. "Thank you!"
What do you think is best to use for smoothing out silver and making it look old smooth? Like an old quarter how the face and date is smoothed out old? Doing science experiment with my son for a school project… I know now what my parents went through when I was a kid with these silly science projects haha
So much of my Dremel experience has been trial and error. Thanks for sharing your own experiences and successes. You’ve opened new possibilities for me. This is an amazingly versatile tool.
Outstanding! This really helps me. I'm taking up carving now that I'm 71 years young and I began with a rechargeable Hardell. Then I knew I really wanted to get into this. I'll eventually be trying gourd carving, but now I'm working on a piece of basswood to make a medallion for a cabinet I refinished. The bits that came with the Hardell aren't cutting it for me (weak humor there) so I really appreciate the education you're providing here. Also appreciate your humor and just getting to the point about each bit without rambling on. I've subscribed. Thanks!
This was an extremely useful overview. I just bought a Dremel so I needed this right now. Like others, I appreciate that this is a fast overview with no BS or fluff filler to extend video run time. Thanks.
I've never used a dremel, and the most I've ever used power tools for were power drills for screws. I'm starting from complete zero. This video and the "How to Use a Dremel" video you made have been EXTREMELY helpful to me. Thank you!!!
Superb video. I’ve owned a dremel for years and learned so much from your video which is packed with information. I’ve bought non dremel parts in the past which either wore out too quickly or exploded so I stick to dremel bits. Thanks George U.K.
I've got the off brand ones. I was given a cordless one and tried to cut through thin aluminum and it kept overloading it. Also made the motor very hot. 3/10 would not recommend, but it got the job done.
Growing up watching kipkay, hacksmith and loads of other crafting youtubers i always thought i would use a dremel almost everyday. I havent used mine in about two years but after this video i think im going to get some new bits and use it more often
Try using it first and then buy bits based on the needs that arise. Buying tools in hopes that the tools will motivate you to start a project is a trap.
I love that you included parts like the tungsten carbide burrs regarding engraving in metal, it's hard to figure out which parts are best for that and what differences they have. Thank you for covering everything I was looking for and thank you for demonstrating visually how each Dremel part would be used instead of just saying "this thing do this" Absolutely amazing video!
That's fantastic to hear! Sometimes it is difficult to find information about them, especially if you don't know what they're called. Thanks for watching!
this is GREAT! the very first beginner kit of dremel bits i got....had no manual whatsoever... i guess its just expected for you to KNOW if you buy it...
I’m so glad that I found your channel, I NEVER thought of searching for anything like this, don’t know why but I’m so glad that this popped up with my regular crafting stuff. So very cool in every way. I agree with the other comments about how they love that you don’t waste time with nonsense and how you get straight to the point. I have a story that’s funny but pretty cool at the same time about how my mother-law and I used to compare notes on how many different things we’ve done with our Dremel tools. We both are from the same cloth and do all our own repairs etc. she is no longer with us and I really miss that lady, man she really had it together. Once she told me how she repaired a set of dentures that were driving her nuts and after she was done they were so comfortable. I laughed so hard and man that felt good to laugh with her like that. 😅 I REALLY appreciated that you made this video showing us how to use the different bits and on what materials they are best used on, etc. I loved the new quick bits that you showed, I had no idea about those, gotta get some for sure. I subscribed to your channel and look forward to learning more from you. Thank you so much for this, it was awesome to watch and I can’t wait to watch more of your stuff. Cheers. I’m just an old lady that has her own tools and knows how to use them LOL. I LOVED how you told people to be careful, I’de have to say that wearing safety glasses is no joke thou, for real, certain bits etc. can really do a number on soft human body parts and some of them are super brittle, that’s NO JOKE and some people are idiots when it comes to trying to force the wrong things, you let the tool do the work and you need to be smart about it but, some people just aren’t wrapped too tight 😅, if ya know what I mean and I’m sure you do! Can’t wait to learn more from ya. ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much for so many kind words! It was lovely to hear about your mother, and the things you two did together. She seems fantastic. I'm really happy that you enjoyed the video, and I wish you the best. Thank you for your support!
Guitar builder here, thank you for pointing out some of these cause I would've never known as someone that mostly uses a combo of CNC and hand tools. Also, Filipino food is the best.
Thanks for the effort you put into this, so many of these attachments are suck it and see and they just don't perform how one would expect. This post is a super time saver, thanks so much for sharing your expertise.
I just got into woodworking. I've got one of these tiny drills / carving tools, a bunch of different bits for it and a lot of other tools as well that I just received from my father, since he likes working with metal more than wood. I've been trying to figure out some simple and easy projects to get started with and your channel has provided me with a lot of ideas and concepts for possible projects I might do. Thank you! Keep the awesome videos coming! +1 subscriber!
Thankyou! I watched the entire video, very informative. I have a dremel kit with lots of bits thinking it would be handy but rarely used it, partially because I didn't understand all the bits. I often have to do small projects/cutting in tight areas. Now I realize I can use my dremel for cutting using several methods/bits. Any other power tool is too large for the spaces I work in (typically under sinks/cabinets) involving smaller cut outs.
Huh. A very educational video, i normally blow off videos like this that pop up because you tubes Algorithm is torturing me, but i never fast forwarded and learned something, thank you. I bough a box of this stuff at a garage sale and have only used the sand drum, i think i have that router attachment too, cool.
Dremel had been favorite tool for many, many years now. You've helped me greatly understand the uses that have confused me. Your carvings are very well done!
This video is so dense with incredibly handy information. I seriously watched the whole thing because i cant think of a better or more efficient to get a really good feel for so many bits!
People making fun of your fingers are just jealous that if you ever play piano or guitar, you will shred like a pro with your reach. I did not realize I needed this video until I watched the whole thing. Thanks for this information I’m inspired to get out my dremel and play.
Thank you for your kind words. I've actually tried to learn each, they just didn't click for me. I'd rather have a hobby that makes a massive mess haha.
This was so incredibly helpful. Really generous of you to take the time to make something that could be seen as "reference" and not "content". Super, super useful for me. I really appreciate it.
I spent about 45 minutes researching why I can't get the drum sanders to stay on with the set I purchased. I felt like I was doing something wrong.. As it turns out, no. I'm not doing it wrong. Be cautious buying absolutely garbage sets because they will get in the way of doing your project (and even damaging it). Thanks for this video. Huge life saver. Now onto buying a higher quality set to actually finish this project!
Started this video thinking that when you said Dremel that you meant any rotary tool not the actual brand. The brand specific stuff I doubt I'll ever get but all the standard bits are why I started watching the video.
Vielen Dank für den Überblick über so viele Dremel Werkzeuge. Für mich war die Abfolge der Bits etwas zu schnell. Aber es ist trotzdem mit Abstand das beste Video zu diesem Thema das ich kenne. Vielen Dank dafür.
@@LogsCarvingClub Für mich persönlich wäre ein längeres Video besser. Die Länge würde mich angesichts der Vielzahl der enthaltenen Informationen nicht stören. - Aber Menschen sind ja unterschiedlich .
@@urmelausdemeis3495, use the "settings" icon (a gear) to access the playback speed adjustment. You can play the video at 50% (half) or 75% ( 3/4ths) of the original speed.
I picked up a variety of Dremel bits for $2 each at a Sears that was going out of business. I had no idea what they were all for, but the price was fantastic so I bought them. Thanks for this video, as I now know what I can use them for.
Yo no lie your like a person that really watched a bunch of TH-cam videos and said you guys suck watch this This has been the best TH-cam video overall like I enjoyed and laughed and learned thanks guy
As a metalworker i learned that woodworkers use dremels too - just likely not compressor operated and smaller ones, as well as gloves instead of plasters on thumbs)). And yes, you can lightly cut, sand and deburr hard metals with the larger carbide small-toothed bits and usually the rough blue sandpaper. For harder metals, TiO coatings are effective and longer lasting (stone bits are not), but not always cost-effective. If you get a more expensive carbide, make sure you know it will last in your setting, otherwise cheap and cheerful does it. Never tried most of what you showcased, but for heavy duty bigger parts angle-grinder is the right choice. P.S. Happy Birthday hand-miller 🎂🎈🔱
@@LogsCarvingClub yes it is... from those of us who suffer from it... [tinnitus is my excuse... lol] I hope I didn't miss your...birthday, but here I am... plz make some really long videos... for ''medicinal purposes'' only lol [and btw, nothing in your video was ''boring''... too much info and too fast... is just frequencies... the tone of your voice is soothing... has even ''healing properties''... perfect to relax us to ''edgy'' for our own good...]
@@LogsCarvingClub there's a certain kind of insomniac that really likes videos like these. You're well spoken, the subject matter rides a line between interesting and dry, and you don't use a bunch of vocal intonation or distracting memes. There's like 6 channels I'm subscribed to just because I need something to listen to while going to sleep, and white noise never really worked for me.
When you mentioned the serrated saw blade, I was instantly reminded of the numb spot on the tip of my ring finger. Blade caught, and sliced my finger wide open quicker than I could blink. Nasty injury, I wish I had known. Glad you're spreading the knowledge of their danger.
Saw blades on anything like an angle grinder terrify me. I much prefer saw blades to be attached to something firmly mounted and stable. I hate wire wheels too. I try to avoid using the wire wheel on my angle grinder whenever possible because spinning attachments that can catch and move on their own is not something I like.
I'm happy you appreciated that. I've read that they're not worth the risk so I stay away from them. Sorry to hear about your finger, hopefully it doesn't bother you too much.
Your tone of voice is perfect for this type of video. And your sense of humor and editing style are also perfectly suited to this content. I'm not a carver, but I do appreciate the algorithm serving this up! Wish you all the best.
TL;DR all comments so apology if this repeats. While outside your hand-carving happy place, I've seen a few other commercial accessory stands and jigs and a whole lot of total DIY jigs to turn a Dremel into an entire micro-scale workshop. Don't know if you're interested in cataloging this wide a slice of the Dremel world as you have here with bits. Just a thought.
I don't own a Dremel (yet) but watching this video has opened up my eyes to all potential solutions it offers for current problems I'm facing. Really nice video and well presented, learned a lot :)
Great video! I saw the easy lock and some of the bit attachments, but wasn't sure about them, so this helps. I finally broke down n got a die grinder for the 1/4 inch shank bits, and use just a couple of Kutzall bits in it. Works for those larger projects. Great info here. Appreciate the video.😊👍
@@LogsCarvingClub I ended up going for the Makita 1/4 inch die grinder model GD0601, as it's cost is about $150. It has an on / off switch and is corded . I wanted the next model up which also has speed control and is more powerful ( GD0800C,... I think) but it runs about $300,... So I opted for the other model as it's still a great tool and should last. It's still a spendy tool, but I just budgeted and saved up for it for about 6 months, and I'm so glad I did. Maybe one day I'll get the next step up, but I'm loving this one. I also ordered several of the Kutzall burrs for it because I have loved them for my Dremel, and they really seem to last. Just a side note,... I was considering the pneumatic kind, as I have an air compressor, and are less expensive , but heard that they don't have as much power as the electric corded varieties, and that the compressor hose makes it harder to maneuver the tool for carving. I've also seen people that are happy with a harbor freight or DeWalt brands that are the corded ones. I just opted to spend a little extra, because I want it to last me a good long time. Hope any of this helps you out. Thanks for all the videos! Appreciate all the great info and tips n tricks you share on your channel.😊👍
@@LogsCarvingClub oh,....I forgot to tell you,..avoid one that has a paddle switch because you have to hold it down the entire time you are carving. On/ off switch is easier to handle for sure.
Very very informative. I got my first dremmel some 15 years ago to work in electronics as a hobby. In time, I bought few more, now I have one Dremmel original, one from Ryobi and two from China, some strange brands. About the bits, I have few sets bought on Amazon, hardware stores as set or individual. Most of the bits I found in those sets I never knew what were for, and your video helped me understand what they are for. Thanks About the actual Dremmel tool, what do you recommend, as power, rpm, maker, brand, etc? What to use and when or for what? What to look when buying a Dremmel tool? Thanks again.
@@LogsCarvingClub Nah it wasn't too fast, I just had to make sure I wasn't distracted by anything else when watching, and skip back a couple of times :)
I had some pretty high hopes for my Dremel when I first bought it. I was wooed by all the attachments, and with the things I had planned to do with them, I was going to conquer the world. Reality sunk in, when I realized how small the collet was, and how limiting that would be. It was deflating. That was a few years ago, and after spending some time apart, I'm starting to revisit the Dremel, but this time without all the expectations, and through it all I'm discovering that despite it's limitations, the Dremel can be pretty useful.
13:29 The Dremel Red Colored Polishing Compound is called "Red Rouge" There are multiple polishing compounds, different colors (Red, White, Green, Brown, etc...) they are used for different types of material (Silver, Gold, Steel, Aluminum, etc...) Fire up your great "G**gle Machine" and input "metal polishing compound color chart" it gives a pdf of what colors are supposed to be used on what types of metals, wood, plastics, etc...
Thanks for creating this video. I bought my first Dremel last year and I've only used it a couple of times and I didn't realize that I had the routing attachment. I need to buy a few routing bits and test it out.
Don't take this the wrong way please. Great video. I have several dremels and they do have a place. That being said, there is nothing the proper tool can't do faster or better. The cost of the bits alone can buy a much nicer purpose built tool.
I absolutely agree to an extent, but for people like me, a Dremel is a great start. For example, I don't need to buy a whole band saw when I can just spend a little extra time roughing out a carving with the 561. My projects would be much easier to do and faster if I had a workshop packed with big tools, but I don't need them. I think the Dremel (and other rotary tools) makes some hobbies much more accessible for people with limited space or budgets.
Thank you for this. I am new to rotary tools and mine came with a bunch of bits, but nothing to tell me what each one is supposed to be used for. LOVE your humor! You made me giggle quite a few times.
Damn, I love your low key attitude & review. I keep thinking about cutting back on the number of channels, but you won me over when you melted your vise!
This video showed up in my feed and got my attention. Very helpful guide, thorough but to the point. I watched a couple of your other videos and subscribed. I would love to see you demonstrate some of the metal bits the way you have with the wood bits. Your wonderful woodworking videos do a great job of showing how and when to use them.
I definitely work with wood more than with metal, because I enjoy wood carving in my spare time, but I'll try and get some more metal-focused videos out. Thank you for your support!

Dremel said nearly 100 years ago: We make a thing, that spins things. Great. Then they spent 100 years inventing stuff, they can spin really fast.
Spinning things real fast really was a marvelous development.
Yes, but only in the counter clockwise direction!?
If only I could spin my hands twice as fast therefore eliminating the use of a Dremel

In saying that, just put a little cutting oil on the bit or the metal "aluminum" you are working on and you will not run into those problems anymore. Plus it will cut your grind or work time in half. No Dremel pun intended. Just found your channel, love what you do. "Thank you!"
What do you think is best to use for smoothing out silver and making it look old smooth? Like an old quarter how the face and date is smoothed out old? Doing science experiment with my son for a school project… I know now what my parents went through when I was a kid with these silly science projects haha
So much of my Dremel experience has been trial and error. Thanks for sharing your own experiences and successes. You’ve opened new possibilities for me. This is an amazingly versatile tool.
Nice Lock Picking Lawyer name drop.
Excellent explanatory video!
Thank you, Tim! I'm happy you appreciated that.
Was looking for this comment 👍
Outstanding! This really helps me. I'm taking up carving now that I'm 71 years young and I began with a rechargeable Hardell. Then I knew I really wanted to get into this. I'll eventually be trying gourd carving, but now I'm working on a piece of basswood to make a medallion for a cabinet I refinished. The bits that came with the Hardell aren't cutting it for me (weak humor there) so I really appreciate the education you're providing here. Also appreciate your humor and just getting to the point about each bit without rambling on. I've subscribed. Thanks!
This is more like it. Lots of information presented quickly without excessive dialog. I learned a lot from your video. Nice job!😊
Great to hear! Thank you for watching.
This was an extremely useful overview. I just bought a Dremel so I needed this right now. Like others, I appreciate that this is a fast overview with no BS or fluff filler to extend video run time. Thanks.
Thank you for your kind words Tom!
Love your dry, quiet sense of humour. Thanks for helping me figure out all these bits I have... great video.
I'm happy you enjoy that! Thank you for your support.
I've never used a dremel, and the most I've ever used power tools for were power drills for screws. I'm starting from complete zero. This video and the "How to Use a Dremel" video you made have been EXTREMELY helpful to me. Thank you!!!
Great to hear! Thank you for watching!
WOW, very nice and informative video - I subscribed !
Thanks for the sub Thomas!
Superb video. I’ve owned a dremel for years and learned so much from your video which is packed with information. I’ve bought non dremel parts in the past which either wore out too quickly or exploded so I stick to dremel bits. Thanks George U.K.
i dont even own a dremel
I didn't, then I watched this video, and two days later now I do! XD
That’s hilarious. Welcome to the club!
I love these comments haha.
They are very useful - try one.
I've got the off brand ones. I was given a cordless one and tried to cut through thin aluminum and it kept overloading it. Also made the motor very hot. 3/10 would not recommend, but it got the job done.
very informative. owned a dremel for over 10 years and only used it when there was no other option. this opened my mind to the possibilities.
That's great to hear! It really can do a lot of different jobs, and sometimes pretty well. Thank you for watching.
Growing up watching kipkay, hacksmith and loads of other crafting youtubers i always thought i would use a dremel almost everyday. I havent used mine in about two years but after this video i think im going to get some new bits and use it more often
That's great to hear! I haven't heard of those channels so I'll have to check them out.
Try using it first and then buy bits based on the needs that arise. Buying tools in hopes that the tools will motivate you to start a project is a trap.
Kipkay! Wow have not thought of him since way back
I love that you included parts like the tungsten carbide burrs regarding engraving in metal, it's hard to figure out which parts are best for that and what differences they have.
Thank you for covering everything I was looking for and thank you for demonstrating visually how each Dremel part would be used instead of just saying "this thing do this"
Absolutely amazing video!
This video is FANTASTIC! Finally I know what these are each designed for instead of just guessing. 😬 Thanks for making this! 👍🏼
That's fantastic to hear! Sometimes it is difficult to find information about them, especially if you don't know what they're called. Thanks for watching!
this is GREAT! the very first beginner kit of dremel bits i got....had no manual whatsoever... i guess its just expected for you to KNOW if you buy it...
I don't even own a dremel and just watched this. Pretty damn good video
Huge compliment haha. Thank you!
I’m so glad that I found your channel, I NEVER thought of searching for anything like this, don’t know why but I’m so glad that this popped up with my regular crafting stuff. So very cool in every way. I agree with the other comments about how they love that you don’t waste time with nonsense and how you get straight to the point. I have a story that’s funny but pretty cool at the same time about how my mother-law and I used to compare notes on how many different things we’ve done with our Dremel tools. We both are from the same cloth and do all our own repairs etc. she is no longer with us and I really miss that lady, man she really had it together. Once she told me how she repaired a set of dentures that were driving her nuts and after she was done they were so comfortable. I laughed so hard and man that felt good to laugh with her like that. 😅 I REALLY appreciated that you made this video showing us how to use the different bits and on what materials they are best used on, etc. I loved the new quick bits that you showed, I had no idea about those, gotta get some for sure. I subscribed to your channel and look forward to learning more from you. Thank you so much for this, it was awesome to watch and I can’t wait to watch more of your stuff. Cheers. I’m just an old lady that has her own tools and knows how to use them LOL. I LOVED how you told people to be careful, I’de have to say that wearing safety glasses is no joke thou, for real, certain bits etc. can really do a number on soft human body parts and some of them are super brittle, that’s NO JOKE and some people are idiots when it comes to trying to force the wrong things, you let the tool do the work and you need to be smart about it but, some people just aren’t wrapped too tight 😅, if ya know what I mean and I’m sure you do! Can’t wait to learn more from ya. ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much for so many kind words! It was lovely to hear about your mother, and the things you two did together. She seems fantastic. I'm really happy that you enjoyed the video, and I wish you the best. Thank you for your support!
Guitar builder here, thank you for pointing out some of these cause I would've never known as someone that mostly uses a combo of CNC and hand tools.
Also, Filipino food is the best.
Guitar building sounds so tough. Thank you for watching!
I cannot thank you enough for making such a straightforward video about all these things you are a lifesaver and time saver
you got me scared at 8:06 when you were cutting towards yourself haha
Totally agree I should have been using a vise.
Thanks for the effort you put into this, so many of these attachments are suck it and see and they just don't perform how one would expect.
This post is a super time saver, thanks so much for sharing your expertise.
Thank you for watching!
I just got into woodworking.
I've got one of these tiny drills / carving tools, a bunch of different bits for it and a lot of other tools as well that I just received from my father, since he likes working with metal more than wood. I've been trying to figure out some simple and easy projects to get started with and your channel has provided me with a lot of ideas and concepts for possible projects I might do.
Thank you! Keep the awesome videos
coming! +1 subscriber!
Thank you! It's a nice hobby to have.
Thankyou! I watched the entire video, very informative. I have a dremel kit with lots of bits thinking it would be handy but rarely used it, partially because I didn't understand all the bits. I often have to do small projects/cutting in tight areas. Now I realize I can use my dremel for cutting using several methods/bits. Any other power tool is too large for the spaces I work in (typically under sinks/cabinets) involving smaller cut outs.
Huh. A very educational video, i normally blow off videos like this that pop up because you tubes Algorithm is torturing me, but i never fast forwarded and learned something, thank you. I bough a box of this stuff at a garage sale and have only used the sand drum, i think i have that router attachment too, cool.
Thank you for watching! I appreciate your support.
Dremel had been favorite tool for many, many years now. You've helped me greatly understand the uses that have confused me.
Your carvings are very well done!
Amazing really struggle to find dreamel bit explanations on youtube and very few kits come with a guide thumbs up
Thank you for your support! I'm happy this was helpful.
This video is so dense with incredibly handy information. I seriously watched the whole thing because i cant think of a better or more efficient to get a really good feel for so many bits!
People making fun of your fingers are just jealous that if you ever play piano or guitar, you will shred like a pro with your reach.
I did not realize I needed this video until I watched the whole thing. Thanks for this information I’m inspired to get out my dremel and play.
Thank you for your kind words. I've actually tried to learn each, they just didn't click for me. I'd rather have a hobby that makes a massive mess haha.
This was so incredibly helpful. Really generous of you to take the time to make something that could be seen as "reference" and not "content". Super, super useful for me. I really appreciate it.
I try to have a mix of both, some for referencing and some for inspiration. Thank you for watching!
so many people can benefit from this video. fantastic.
Thank you for watching!
I spent about 45 minutes researching why I can't get the drum sanders to stay on with the set I purchased. I felt like I was doing something wrong.. As it turns out, no. I'm not doing it wrong. Be cautious buying absolutely garbage sets because they will get in the way of doing your project (and even damaging it).
Thanks for this video. Huge life saver. Now onto buying a higher quality set to actually finish this project!
I agree, some of the cheap off-brand sets have duds. Usually not enough though for me to stay away. Thank you for watching!
Started this video thinking that when you said Dremel that you meant any rotary tool not the actual brand. The brand specific stuff I doubt I'll ever get but all the standard bits are why I started watching the video.
Thank you for watching anyways! I'm hoping this video is still helpful for other similar rotary tools.
I bought it for my gourd crafts, woodworking and anything else I can find. It comes in handy for many different types of crafts!
Great! I also use it for all sorts of hobbies.
Vielen Dank für den Überblick über so viele Dremel Werkzeuge.
Für mich war die Abfolge der Bits etwas zu schnell. Aber es ist trotzdem mit Abstand das beste Video zu diesem Thema das ich kenne.
Vielen Dank dafür.
Thank you! Sorry about the speed, I didn’t want the video to be too long. I’ll work on it! All the best.
@@LogsCarvingClub
Für mich persönlich wäre ein längeres Video besser.
Die Länge würde mich angesichts der Vielzahl der enthaltenen Informationen nicht stören.
- Aber Menschen sind ja unterschiedlich .
@@urmelausdemeis3495 Thank you for letting me know - future videos should be less rushed. Have a nice weekend!
@@urmelausdemeis3495, use the "settings" icon (a gear) to access the playback speed adjustment. You can play the video at 50% (half) or 75% ( 3/4ths) of the original speed.
I picked up a variety of Dremel bits for $2 each at a Sears that was going out of business. I had no idea what they were all for, but the price was fantastic so I bought them. Thanks for this video, as I now know what I can use them for.
I fold pretty quickly when they go on sale, even when I don't need them. Thank you for commenting!
Yo no lie your like a person that really watched a bunch of TH-cam videos and said you guys suck watch this
This has been the best TH-cam video overall like I enjoyed and laughed and learned thanks guy
I don't want any rivalries, but I'm happy you liked my video style! Thank you for your support.
@@LogsCarvingClub I like where your coming from you right now rivalries thank you 🙏🏽 for the great video tho
As a metalworker i learned that woodworkers use dremels too - just likely not compressor operated and smaller ones, as well as gloves instead of plasters on thumbs)). And yes, you can lightly cut, sand and deburr hard metals with the larger carbide small-toothed bits and usually the rough blue sandpaper. For harder metals, TiO coatings are effective and longer lasting (stone bits are not), but not always cost-effective. If you get a more expensive carbide, make sure you know it will last in your setting, otherwise cheap and cheerful does it. Never tried most of what you showcased, but for heavy duty bigger parts angle-grinder is the right choice.
P.S. Happy Birthday hand-miller 🎂🎈🔱
Cheap and cheerful is always welcome for me! Thank you.
Your voice is the cure to insomnia
I'm gonna assume that's a compliment so thank you, Doctor!
@@LogsCarvingClub yes it is... from those of us who suffer from it... [tinnitus is my excuse... lol] I hope I didn't miss your...birthday, but here I am... plz make some really long videos... for ''medicinal purposes'' only lol [and btw, nothing in your video was ''boring''... too much info and too fast... is just frequencies... the tone of your voice is soothing... has even ''healing properties''... perfect to relax us to ''edgy'' for our own good...]
@@LogsCarvingClub there's a certain kind of insomniac that really likes videos like these. You're well spoken, the subject matter rides a line between interesting and dry, and you don't use a bunch of vocal intonation or distracting memes. There's like 6 channels I'm subscribed to just because I need something to listen to while going to sleep, and white noise never really worked for me.
One of the funniest comments I’ve ever read on YT😂….amazing bit collection.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge- straight to the point without a long intro. Just the facts!
The TH-cam algorithm does strange things to recommend me a video like this, but I still thought it was really cool
I’m glad you clicked on it!
Thank you, people like you make TH-cam worth it! Thanks!
Thank you for your support!
Excellent overview. Very clear and helpful. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for commenting.
Dude! Finally..THE proper video about these things that I needed. Thank you so much.
When you mentioned the serrated saw blade, I was instantly reminded of the numb spot on the tip of my ring finger. Blade caught, and sliced my finger wide open quicker than I could blink. Nasty injury, I wish I had known. Glad you're spreading the knowledge of their danger.
Saw blades on anything like an angle grinder terrify me. I much prefer saw blades to be attached to something firmly mounted and stable. I hate wire wheels too. I try to avoid using the wire wheel on my angle grinder whenever possible because spinning attachments that can catch and move on their own is not something I like.
I'm happy you appreciated that. I've read that they're not worth the risk so I stay away from them. Sorry to hear about your finger, hopefully it doesn't bother you too much.
Thank you. Wasted so much time with the wrong bits, now I ordered a Kutzall right when watching the video. Cheers from Japan!
Your tone of voice is perfect for this type of video. And your sense of humor and editing style are also perfectly suited to this content. I'm not a carver, but I do appreciate the algorithm serving this up! Wish you all the best.
That's fantastic to hear! Thank you for your support!
I literally subscribed less than a minute in. These are the type of videos I am looking for in life. Thank you,God bless, and Godspeed my friend.
Thank you Andrew! I appreciate your support!
TL;DR all comments so apology if this repeats. While outside your hand-carving happy place, I've seen a few other commercial accessory stands and jigs and a whole lot of total DIY jigs to turn a Dremel into an entire micro-scale workshop. Don't know if you're interested in cataloging this wide a slice of the Dremel world as you have here with bits. Just a thought.
I could try! I don't use jigs too often though. Thank you for the idea!
I don't own a Dremel (yet) but watching this video has opened up my eyes to all potential solutions it offers for current problems I'm facing. Really nice video and well presented, learned a lot :)
I like the fact that you demonstrate what you’re using a bit on. Really helps.
I’m glad you liked that! Thank you for watching.
Thats the best 20 minutes that I've invested in watching in a video 👍🏻 thank you for what you do 👍🏻
Love your videos mate, got that envy over your dremel bit holder station, beaut! Keep em coming, love from Ireland
Thank you! And yes, the holder was a recent project over the summer. I filmed making it so I'll probably put that out someday. Have a good one!
Great video! I saw the easy lock and some of the bit attachments, but wasn't sure about them, so this helps. I finally broke down n got a die grinder for the 1/4 inch shank bits, and use just a couple of Kutzall bits in it. Works for those larger projects. Great info here. Appreciate the video.😊👍
Which grinder did you get? I’m thinking about expanding my tool collection so I can do some larger things. Thanks!
@@LogsCarvingClub I ended up going for the Makita 1/4 inch die grinder model GD0601, as it's cost is about $150. It has an on / off switch and is corded . I wanted the next model up which also has speed control and is more powerful ( GD0800C,... I think) but it runs about $300,... So I opted for the other model as it's still a great tool and should last. It's still a spendy tool, but I just budgeted and saved up for it for about 6 months, and I'm so glad I did. Maybe one day I'll get the next step up, but I'm loving this one. I also ordered several of the Kutzall burrs for it because I have loved them for my Dremel, and they really seem to last.
Just a side note,... I was considering the pneumatic kind, as I have an air compressor, and are less expensive , but heard that they don't have as much power as the electric corded varieties, and that the compressor hose makes it harder to maneuver the tool for carving.
I've also seen people that are happy with a harbor freight or DeWalt brands that are the corded ones. I just opted to spend a little extra, because I want it to last me a good long time. Hope any of this helps you out.
Thanks for all the videos! Appreciate all the great info and tips n tricks you share on your channel.😊👍
@@LogsCarvingClub oh,....I forgot to tell you,..avoid one that has a paddle switch because you have to hold it down the entire time you are carving. On/ off switch is easier to handle for sure.
I tried to use a nylon polishing wheel only once, I melted it almost instantly...
Super informative and to the point, thanks a lot!
That's interesting, I haven't had that happen to me. How were you using it?
The best video I’ve ever seen about Dremel bits . I’ve had the same one for over twenty years’
Impressive! Thank you for your support.
I've learned a lot watching your video. Thanks, new subscriber.
I'm happy this was helpful! Thank you for your support.
Very very informative. I got my first dremmel some 15 years ago to work in electronics as a hobby. In time, I bought few more, now I have one Dremmel original, one from Ryobi and two from China, some strange brands. About the bits, I have few sets bought on Amazon, hardware stores as set or individual. Most of the bits I found in those sets I never knew what were for, and your video helped me understand what they are for. Thanks
About the actual Dremmel tool, what do you recommend, as power, rpm, maker, brand, etc? What to use and when or for what? What to look when buying a Dremmel tool? Thanks again.
you definitely don't waste your time [or ours] mate!... too much info, too fast, without losing your sense of humor... nice!
Definitely struggled to fit this into a reasonable amount of time, may have rushed it!
@@LogsCarvingClub Nah it wasn't too fast, I just had to make sure I wasn't distracted by anything else when watching, and skip back a couple of times :)
When I bought my first Dremel I was shocked they had no resource like this.
That's one of the reasons I started this channel haha.
@@LogsCarvingClub you are filling a need for sure!
Idk how I got here but I watched the whole thing
Happens to the best of us.
I promise never to use any dremel attachment as a toothbrush
Good. Thank you.
wasn't expecting to learn so much about dremel bits today but i guess here we are, my paper be damned
I have never heard that saying but I think I strongly relate.
I had some pretty high hopes for my Dremel when I first bought it. I was wooed by all the attachments, and with the things I had planned to do with them, I was going to conquer the world. Reality sunk in, when I realized how small the collet was, and how limiting that would be. It was deflating. That was a few years ago, and after spending some time apart, I'm starting to revisit the Dremel, but this time without all the expectations, and through it all I'm discovering that despite it's limitations, the Dremel can be pretty useful.
13:29 The Dremel Red Colored Polishing Compound is called "Red Rouge"
There are multiple polishing compounds, different colors (Red, White, Green, Brown, etc...) they are used for different types of material (Silver, Gold, Steel, Aluminum, etc...)
Fire up your great "G**gle Machine" and input "metal polishing compound color chart" it gives a pdf of what colors are supposed to be used on what types of metals, wood, plastics, etc...
Thanks for your help! I wish the packaging had a grit number, similar to sandpaper.
@@LogsCarvingClub the chart I looked up had them graded from "coarse" to "fine" grits
This is a top 3 videos of the year entry for me- learning a ton, thank you!
Thank you!
You know it truly isn't sponsored, because he keeps saying to buy 3rd-party bit attachments in bulk
Thanks for creating this video. I bought my first Dremel last year and I've only used it a couple of times and I didn't realize that I had the routing attachment. I need to buy a few routing bits and test it out.
Thanks for the effort, this is crazy info compiled right here 🔥 God bless
Thank you! I'm happy you enjoyed the video.
Excellent presentation! You covered bit usage well, and provided good demonstrations. Your humor was a nice touch too!
Don't take this the wrong way please. Great video. I have several dremels and they do have a place. That being said, there is nothing the proper tool can't do faster or better. The cost of the bits alone can buy a much nicer purpose built tool.
I absolutely agree to an extent, but for people like me, a Dremel is a great start. For example, I don't need to buy a whole band saw when I can just spend a little extra time roughing out a carving with the 561. My projects would be much easier to do and faster if I had a workshop packed with big tools, but I don't need them. I think the Dremel (and other rotary tools) makes some hobbies much more accessible for people with limited space or budgets.
Excellent video! All information I could have used years ago, but I'm glad it's here now. Well done!
Better late than never! Thank you for your support.
“In freedom units”
😂😂😂
Thank you for this. I am new to rotary tools and mine came with a bunch of bits, but nothing to tell me what each one is supposed to be used for. LOVE your humor! You made me giggle quite a few times.
Thank you! I'm happy this was helpful.
"Don't use it as a toothbrush."
...hello intrusive thought. (⌐ᴗ⌐)ᶸ
Don't do it!
Damn, I love your low key attitude & review. I keep thinking about cutting back on the number of channels, but you won me over when you melted your vise!
I'm surprised that's what sold you haha, but regardless thank you for your support!
This video showed up in my feed and got my attention. Very helpful guide, thorough but to the point. I watched a couple of your other videos and subscribed. I would love to see you demonstrate some of the metal bits the way you have with the wood bits. Your wonderful woodworking videos do a great job of showing how and when to use them.
I definitely work with wood more than with metal, because I enjoy wood carving in my spare time, but I'll try and get some more metal-focused videos out. Thank you for your support!
