USING A DREMEL FOR SANDING _________________________________________________________________________________ SHOPPING LIST
_________________________________________________________________________________
Using a Dremel allows for quick sanding, drilling and carving. Manual tools can also be used in it's place - but a Dremel is the fastest way to work. Be sure to wear the proper safety equipment when in use! ALWAYS USE DREMEL BRAND BITS, CUTTERS AND SANDING DRUMS Other brands are low quality and will break sanding Breyer plastic, potentially causing harm and unneeded hassle. Dremel brand are strong and work easily with Breyer plastic DREMEL ROTARY TOOL I use a Dremel 3000 model for bulk sanding on customizing projects. This Dremel has good power and multiple speeds, especially for sanding Breyer plastic. I use a Dremel Stylo for small details.

A flex shaft is easier to work with and less vibration on your hands. The quick release nut allows for fast changes of bits.

These come in two sizes and 3 grits which I alternate between. I prefer hand cutting with a hacksaw personally. 60 Grit : Coarse 150 Grit : Medum 200 Grit : Fine Sanding Drum ½” : amzn.to/4jqgjD1 Sanding Drum ¼” : amzn.to/4jog5wq _________________________________________________________________________________ CUTTING WHEELS Be sure to use Plastic or Metal grade cutting wheels.
