Some guys will kid you about using a dremel tool, but I have found it to be a very handy tool for lots of tasks.

I really believe that the stories about issues in gunwork with the dremel, tis not with the tool, but rather with the user and the specific environment. All tools crater things if not used properly. The buck stops with the user.

Flamed............well I am close to well done on both sides. The good people that you meet is worth the torching from others that you can ignore.

I can't imagine a workshop without at least 2 Dremel tools. I have worn out at least 2-3 over the years. I found out quickly that the "bargain" Dremel-type tools are NOT a bargain, especially if it is to be used a lot.

A nice job on fitting your new grips. They look like they wound be comfortable to shoot with.

The originals held up well. I'm still using the one I bought in 1958.

It's worn out a lot of bits, and a couple of sets of brushes, but it still runs like new.
