@Baron Marshall & WM,
thanks, I think I'll ask for dremel (how much does the drill sell for?) then ask if they have less expensive models....
btw I live in kuala lumpur, malaysia (not HK) ;)

I'm sure I read before you were in HK.  ???

There are now lots of different models of Dremel tools.

Go to sites like sears.ca, sears.com, homedepot.ca, Rona.ca and do a search for Dremel and see the prices, accessories, and models. They'll tell you prices too.

thanks WM! I will do some research...any thread you know of sharing pictures and use of dremel tools in any of the other playmo forums?

I'm very sure it wasn't me...I have been to HK a couple of times but only as a tourist ;)

sorry for going off topic..:P :-[

We do have a member in hong kong, that's probably the reason for the confusion.

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

I went to Lowes yesterday & looked at the Dremels they had for sale, & WOW :omg: they have come out with some cool stuff since I bought mine in 1999!
They range from upper $50.00 to $90.00 USD & then there are the attachments which are limitless. The first thing you need to find is a source in your country for replacement cutting discs, sanding wheels, etc. because the tool is worthless without those small, but pricey replacement items that wear out on a normal basis. For example 5 reinforced cutting wheels cost around $8.00 USD :-\.

  Forget about all of the other stuff,....all we need is the reintroduction of the 3526 Fire Engine!

So I grabbed another box car to see how painting it would turn out.  It went so much faster.
