I wanted to remove some excess Zinc spray on some Bren Gun Carrier wheels, and after faffing around with emery cloth I looked at a Dremel tool.
Not impressed with the price of genuine kit, especially as I wouldn't be using it that often, but a Chinese knock-off at £24 seemed a better solution, I could always go genuine if the need arose.
For that money you get a motor head, flexible drive and some assorted tools like small emery wheels etc etc.
I used it on one of the wheel sets to get rid of the Zinc overspray:
The cylindrical emery wheels were fine but didn't last that long, I got a fresh batch from ebay and they were much better.
Finished wheel:
Today I received two packs of HSS saw blades to go on the machine, 5 sizes and an arbor. A quick test on a scrap piece of ceiling cladding shows that they will do the job of slotting the rear of the last ceiling piece in the Mercedes, and I'll try it tonight after work.
