I love how much information you squeezed into this video in as little time as possible. Nothing unnecessary. Straight to the point and pure informative. Thank you for respecting the viewer's time!

Outstanding video. I don't normally leave comments for this sort of thing, but I really liked this presentation. Quick, to the point, and covers what needs to be covered. I feel I learned something from this as a potential buyer. As such, I'm interested in more of your content.

Glad to hear. I'll make more content like this then :)

Thanks, mate! You provided all the info I needed.

Great review!

If I don't use a tool for a while, I think they sprout legs and run away 😂. So now I need to get a new cordless Dremel. I've got a dedicated flex-shaft corded one, mainly for the power. Ever since the 12v ones came out I've had one and would never go back to a corded one for "non-flex-shaft" use, same as any other cordless tool. Idk how handy Bluetooth is on a tool because I've never had one. This thing's selling point for me is the power. Maybe if you're very new to rotary tools, Bluetooth could help you find the proper bit and speed, but if you've had one for more than a week you probably know how easy that is to figure out. Most stuff you do is at full power, polishing being the major difference. When you buy bits, they say what they're for right on the packaging, and all of their "bit kits" have dedicated sections, separating groups of bits by category, like metal cutting, sanding, engraving, polishing, etc... So really, I'd like to hear from anyone who has one, if you find the Bluetooth function useful, or is it a bit gimmicky? Thanks.

The Dremel 8260/8250 are the most powerful Dremel models. Especially at lower speeds. The bluetooth is sort of a gimmick in my opinion. You can still get the Dremel app for the info without the 8260 and just set the RPMs manually. Milwaukee has a 4 Amp battery rotary tool, which might be more powerful (have not tried it though). The 8250 is the same as 8260, without the bluetooth.

Wow. Just wow. So good picture, so informative video! Thank you! Just got my 8260-65 and trying to figure out what doing spare steel screw. Looks like it's not for the collets, hmm 🤔

Very useful, thanks!

Top man, that's all the info I was after. Cheers

Thank you for posting. I Wanted to buy the 8260 but no dealers have them where I live.

No problem. Check if anyone has the 8250, it is basically the same tool without the Bluetooth.

only mine can’t get to over 20/25k rpm when battery is low? I think that’s some kind of protection

@rotarycrafts8760

Yeah. On the cordless models you will notice that the power and speed of the tool is reduced when the battery gets low. This is the same with all other battery power tools I've tried. Thanks for watching😀

I just acquired one. One thing concerns me… one end of the digital speed display is short/open. Its circuit board is exposed to debris!

Yeah. I also saw that. Have not noticed any problems with it yet. Hopefully it won't be a problem in the long run.

Does your power button press in at all? Mine does and not sure if its suppose to.

At the front of the power button I can press it in a little bit.

Does the 8250/60 have a battery back that is connected with cord so I can make it a cord machine? I like cord because I hate charging.

@rotarycrafts8760

No it is not connected with a cord. You have to remove the battery to charge it.

When it comes to the cordless models wich are the best at getting the job done between all that Dremel has to offer in your video and not? And same question goes for all with a cord. I wanna know if I should save up I bought a 200 engraver one and it was crap took forever to use I want it to go faster also is any of them making less sound than others? Is the ones with cords more powerful s than the cordless or same?

Hi. The most powerful Dremel rotary tool is by far the cordless Dremel 8250/8260. This is also relatively quiet and low on vibration. The 4000 and 4300 are the most powerfull corded ones. My favorite is the 4000. I use it mainly for woodcarving. You could also check out the FOREDOM tool. This is more powerful than these handheld rotary tools, but a little bit of a different tool. But it might be suitable for your use.

You should check out my newest video where I explain all the different Dremel models. The 3000 is good. It can definitely drill a hole through a rock. Use a ball shaped diamond coated bit or the Dremel diamond coated drill bit, spray water frequently in the hole while cutting so it does not dry out and overheat. And drill slowly, it will probably take a few minutes depending on the size of the rock.

@@rotarycrafts8760 ahhhhhh do that's why it didn't work. I used the bits that came with the machine and I was at it for two hours dint even get half way trough and I used both a ball one and a long screwy one...I first used them on wood it worked well then I switched to stone wich did not go well and back to wood and now they won't even work on wood... Did they get destroyed by the stone like are they not made for using on stone? Does it need to be Simon coated bits? Also even on wood it overheated and got black and smell burning do I need to soak wood in water aswell? I did dunk the stone in water but it was still hard to use because the machine kept blowing air on it so it dried the air can't be turned of right? All of this was really tedious will the dining bits make it better or do I need s nother machine completely ...two hours and only reaching 1/3 of a thiny thin rock is not right. Fun part is the 240 I had before almost worked abetter and without Simon bits on stone haha..but still not good enough for me to be comfysrble with. .this thing can't even do anything either my bits got destroyed by the stone or I'm using it wrong or I'm dumb.

@@rotarycrafts8760 also do I need any specific kind of stone? I took ordinary grey rocks from outside.

The Bosch pro 12V Max batteries and chargers are compatible except for the 6Ah batteries (the body of the Dremel is slightly in the way and doesn't let you push the battery in all the way). The Bosch GAL 12V-40 quick charger promises charging time of 50 minutes for 3Ah batteries from zero to full or 36 minutes zero to 80% so if you run into issues with battery life I would highly suggest getting the Bosch batteries and charger.

What about a teardown? Nobody has done it yet and you can be the very first youtuber to do this.

Good idea. I'll make a video on that pretty soon.

Is the 8240 pretty much the same as the 8220?

@rotarycrafts8760

5 ай бұрын

The 8240 is a little bit stronger is my impression. And the 8240 batteries can be used with the 8250 and 60. Other than that, yes the 8240 and 8220 are fairly similar.

And the 8250 goes up to 35000rpm 5000 more than the 8260.
