Hello Bob,

I have an old Craftsman die grinder that has served me well for years.  I
also have a DuMore which is a professional, heavy duty tool.  Actually, I
can't tell that the DuMore is any better that the Craftsman.  If you're
going to use it much, I'd stay away from Dremel and go with a  quality brand
name.  For all you Dremel owners, I also have one of those and when you
limit it's use to light duty, it does okay also although they don't seem to
live long.

Hi,

Does anybody out in VV land have any experience with electric die grinders?
My son has asked for one for his birthday (for doing port work on an Eagle
Talon). I have no direct experience and they vary in price from $20 to $200
so I want to make sure I make a reasonable choice. BTW, air powered die
grinders are not an option.

Any help most appreciated!

Thanks,
Bob
