Recommended model of dremel for advanced gun smith work

I just pulled the trigger on the 4300 Dremel tool... and as normally happens; all the add on goodies ship in a few weeks versus a days after I pushed the order button. The Dremel itself should not have an issue. I have one small set of buffing material that says it should arrive with the Dremel.

Don't forget to order a dog toe nail burr. Dremel makes grinding toe nails much easier then clipping.

hmm, sort of not happy, but not sad.....poked at the tool for a few mins. Clunky little chunk of plastic. I think I will be getting the shaft attachment to keep things a bit nimble for polishing stuff up.

I think my old ryobi drill/screw driver is smoother than the Dremel tool; however, the run out on the shaft for the ryobi is a bit more than I care for. But then it is a cheap drill / screw driver that is over 7 years old. What do I expect?

I just finished the break in period with the new brushes - so that is done. Running 5 mins full out sure left it a bit warm by the tip of the device.

Foredom or none.

After digging thru a bunch of crap sorting stuff out for reloading I did find my real old dremel 300 under a box of reloading equipment.

Looking at the shaft cable for the new Dremel I am going to say that maybe Foredom would be a valid choice if needing to use a tool in that configuration.
