![]() Yes, you have to compromise precision with this small sander. You can have different disk bits that vary in diameter and materials.ĭrum shape bits are bigger than disk bits, and you can use them to smoothen larger surfaces quickly. These abrasive bits are ideal for sanding with perfect precision. They are- disk and drum.ĭisk shape bits are brilliant in polishing the tiny surface of any metal and wood piece.

Now, let’s discuss them one by one to get more in-depth knowledge about these Dremel types. Here, I have categorized Dremel bits into 6 parts according to their functionalities. ![]() There are numerous Dremel bits in the marketplace providing several small scale services for the metalworking, woodworking, or DIY projects. Introducing 6 Types of Dremel bits and Their uses All the different types of Dremel carving bits.Introducing 6 Types of Dremel bits and Their uses.A new design with more power and better bits on the same weathered raised grain wood. I have been working on another project that I hope to have complete soon using a Bosch Colt 1 hp router. Your design and imagination along with a good bit can make a wonderful project. If you have a Dremel tool I recommend giving this a try. We'll soon see as I have some Dremel bits on order. Or perhaps, I need to invest in better bits. I would imagine this bit has already seen its life. Near the end of the cutting I noted the bit was really struggling as well. The raised grain just made it a little tougher of a job than it should have been I think. The next time I use a Dremel for routing I will be sure to use a nice soft and newer piece of wood. Overall, a fun first time project exploring how to use tools in different ways. Even then all we did was use a router to put an edge on a project. Therefore, you might want to work with a nice soft pine right from the lumber yard or supply store when using a rotary tool router setup.įinal Note: Forgot to take image of the hair and horns wood removed with router.Īs mentioned this was my first attempt of using any type of a router in 30+ years since my days in wood shop class. It made the project quite the challenge as the little 1/8 inch bit wanted to follow the grain rather than cutting through it. The raised grain caused a little havoc with this project. With that said, the grain was quite raised on this wood compared to a new piece of untreated and unweathered lumber. It has been quite weathered and probably exposed to lots of moisture over time. I discovered a huge difference working with my project piece This piece is reclaimed from an old step or deck bench. NOTE! Before working on this project I did practice with some of the bits on another piece of wood. Use the same concept on your horizontal work surface. But, here is a short Dremel video to show how a plunge cut is made on a vertical surface. Sorry, but I forgot to take pictures as I was cutting. If you smell smoke you are burning the wood! Take some time to adjust the speed and work the tool a little slower. Read below for explanation of why routing is not as clean as desired. After your all routing is complete, use a burr cutting tool to clean up the edges.With the cutting guide set to about 1/4 inch depth cut your design into the wood.
