Dremel Attachment - carving tool

Post by Jag001 »

Sorry all,

I have searched the forums and can remember seeing a post with link tool, but for the life of me I cannot find it again.

This was a rotary style tool that was an attachment which screwed over the nose of the Dremel Rotary Tool, it ended up as an extension to the dremel and had three rotating cutters. I believe it was available from a british website....

I cannot remember the name of the tool or the website.

Can anyone help?

cheers,
jeff

Hi Jag,
It's most likely kaizenbonsai run by Graham Potter in the UK - he has a good series of die grinder bits and also ones that fit to a hobbyist Dremel.

Thanks
James

Hi Jeff

They were over on Bonsai South that you would have seen them Rod placed up the topic under tools .

Here is the link I think that you are referring to the MAXI series.

I just purchased the "nibbler" but I haven't had a chance to give it a run yet, but I will let you know.
Tony Tickle was using one in the Canberra workshops this week.

Hoping I can get some advice on the back of this thread rather than start another topic.

I have a dremmel knock-off which has been great using dremmel bits for fine carving but I am wanting a bit that is able to do bigger carving.

I have been looking at http://www.kaizenbonsai.com/catalogsear ... ?q=TERRIER specifically the terrier bits but am unsure which is the best option of a dremmel type tool.

How do the Kaizen Terrier bits compare to the Nibbler range found here http://bonsainibbler.co.uk/shop/ ?
