HB sent me a coupon through email for a Dremel-like tool for $15.99 (half-price). It comes with 1/8" and 3/32" collets (I know at least one Dremel tool has 1/8" collets) so I expect that a lot of different tool-bits would be available. Although I do not have a specific use in mind at the moment, it seems like it might come in handy for smoothing sharp edges and "unanticipated" tasks like that.
What's the verdict: (1) useless, or redundant (could just use a file), (2) good value, (3) insist on Dremel?
