Hi All,

I guess I work my little dremel hard but it just died the other day Sad
I have often wondered if the dust from working composites is bad for them and if it the cause of death in this case ?

(I wonder if I should get a new model with flexible drive to keep the motor more out of the dust ?)

Am I right, any comments, suggestions etc ?

Cheers,
Richard B.

A compressor and air tools are not really expensive compared to conventional mains dremel and alot safer! Just just require slight oiling thought the air inlet pipe daily and the should last a long time! So much safer as they wont short out too. I always has a vacuum cleaner as close to the blade as i can sucking in the dust, but i cant seem to find a vaccum cleaner that is none electrical so i have just sealed all the gaps up with silicone.
