Hoarder Amnesia Alert:
I have one of those 'knockoff' Ozito Rotary Tools new in the box purchased 5 or 6 years ago during post Christmas/Happy Spending Holidays sales,
put away for the next -new tool day 'n play- and forgotten
What I was going to use it for, got forgotten too.
Does this happen to anyone else ?
Anyways, just unboxed it and gave it a quick go, this is a killa tool that goes from snail to 30k rpm with variable speed, runs cool and won't bog down easily under load.
It lacks any serious freebie/starter cut-off wheel attachments which I will soon hunt down (or 'invent'
)
but hoping all these attachments are a standard shaft arrangement to save me the R+D hassle
I'll check out the Dremel tool too now that I have a reference/starting point of expectation, and see what the hoorah is about,
whether it's worthy to draw out the credit card as a second tool addition to save time and bother on attachment changes,
or just awesome marketing and product flooding,
and better off going another decent quality knockoff instead, and blow saved money on attachments and spares
---------------------------------
Tip. The speed control on mine (Canadian brand "Mastercraft") looses most torque below 50% so as usual, Mr Variac saves the day. YMMV..
No magic smoke vapor trails or carbon brush sizzling when cranking it up or down with Mr. Variac ?
