Which is the best Dremmel to buy for doing the grinding, cutting and other fettling required with Lambretta parts? Mine has bitten the bullet and needs replacing but I can't find the same model again. What are you using? Tia :D

What model were you using? I suspect they might have discontinued the cordless version. I picked one up cheap quite recently.

I use a Black & Decker one. I've had it 5 years and it's still going strong. The attachments are readily available from B&Q, Screwfix etc etc.

395 mate. Not sure which one to get, the 3000 or 4000, just want to make sure the one I get is powerful enough.

I use the big boys dremmel a 5 inch angle grinder with a flap wheel. I spend more time changing cutting wheels or burs with a dremmel

I've got a dremel but when you depress the button to unlock the attachment your using it just turns so I can't get my bits out the end. Is there another Dremel with this button enhanced so it works better or is mine an isolated problem ?
