And he'll throw in not one, not two, but nine extra motor brushes! My Woolies 'dremel' died last year and get replaced with another cheapo.. Lidl had a mini pneumatic rotary tool on sale a few months ago. I haven't used it in anger yet but it looks quite the biz. in a nice case with an in-line oiler. For jobs where a 'dremel' is going to get stressed. Off topic but my best air tool may well be my Parkside brad/staple gun - used for pinning all the edging for a whole house laminated floor and currently stapling chicken wire to fruit cage frames. pgk

I just had a look at the corded Makita die grinder on ebay, the only negative review was from from someone claiming it had to be sent back to makita for repair after 10 mins use, makita tools have a 3 year warranty if you register them, first year the retailer takes care, 2 and 3, you contact makita directly, you'll always get those "I bought a 6" rule, it's smaller than it looks in photos" reviews.
