Glad to help!
I have every kutzall I've bought using your code, I think 5 different ones. They work great and last a long time, I just clean them and they are pretty much new again 👍
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and talent! Much appreciated!

Thank you
Jordy . Don't worry about the length of your video , nice work .
I like your video. I hold the flex shaft between my Thumb and Index finger with the the Lock facing up so that way I won't be able to press on it. You had good tips that I did not know. Keep making some more good Dremel tips.
oh my goodness....I could not have assembled this without your instructions! Thank you from a true beginner!

@kathy steffler. Would love to know what project you started with?
Nice overview! I have a Dremel that's in the 3000 series and a Stylus Dremel and I have a flex shaft. I'm looking forward to learning about what kind of bits and burrs you use. Thanks for this series.
Great and informative video. I just broke my first flex shaft yesterday. Very informative. Thank you.
I appreciate it. I'm new at this, and you pretty much covered all the experiences I've had in the last couple days. The biggest one that got me was the locking button on the flex shaft. I keep thinking it's an on/off switch, so I press it, and it grinds. I'd like to have a way to turn it on and off on the tool. The other issue was the inner flex shaft itself. Mine pulled out, and I wasn't sure how to get it back in, which you showed. So thank you for making the video.
Jordy You ARE THE MAN! As always the video was great. Lots of helpful info for beginners and novice power carvers. Thanks for sharing your knowlege....most of all thanks for giving back!
You have inspired me. Carved many woodsprits and tried different type of wood too. Osage orange is beautiful. Slow down on hard woods. The burr list made the world of difference. Tha ks so mush for sharing. You have saved me money, time and frustration.
So many great suggestions that are true to point . Thanks Jordy for going back to basics you the Man!
I appreciate you taking the time to explain in detail. I have learned so much from you.
Very very excellent. Perfect for someone like me who’s just beginning with the flex shaft
Ty so much just gotten dremel 4000 and flex shaft excited to use it love your shows they are very inspiring
Wow, thank you about the grease trick and extra cables. I just bought the 8260 and the 130 piece box today. I still need the flex chord. I'm subscribing to your channel. Great video and straight to the point. 👍

thanks for the great tips jordy. I lost the driver cap for my brand new flexshaft already, so i emailed dremel about it and they sent me a new driver cap for free! awesomeeeee i have been trying to carve lady faces too lately(but on tiny whittles). i cant wait to see what you come up with on lady faces!!
Great video Bro, thanks for all you do & hope your good
You are correct to much grease will cause heat!
Jordy I still watch your old stuff too haha thanks for inspiring me into wood carving I would have never started had I not accidentally seen a wood spirit vid of yours where u kept saying "anybody can do it!"

doing a great job mate ,the one thing i find i go through the collets and most times you can only buy a set off say 10 but all different sizes ,and i am like you i try and use the same shaft size burrs
I like the idea of the foot which because having to reach up and turn on and off on the unit is a pain.
OK, great video! I did not know there was a square bit that went inside the Dremel tool for the flexshaft. (I always wondered what that was for). I would just tighten the normal bit on the shaft. Hopefully I didn’t mess it up.
This tutorial was wonderful , thankyou

TY Jordy! I have a brand new flex shaft, using the Dremel 8250. Would you suggest taking out the inner flexible shaft piece & wiping off the grease prior to running the new flex shaft 2-5 minutes as you said? TY Jordy! Keep your vids coming, so informative!! 😀

@CarvingFusion Jordy! It's wild the amount of grease on the inner flexible shaft piece! Wild! I'm going to do your next suggestion of running the dremel while it's lower & the flex shaft higher. Suggestions for a very basic, newbie, first carve? Something small to begin with. A 🌼? Love your trees & can't wait yo attempt those. TY so much Jordy! So much knowledge you share with your community. It is appreciated! 😀

Why wouldy/does my Flex Sheft vibrate so bad when it's running. It's bad enough that it affects grip and control. I've unattached it and re-attached a couple of times. I've only used it about 2 hrs total so I'd say it's still brand new.

I'd pull the inter shaft out and see if it's bent? Also sometimes the bearings inside of them are no good from the factory , if this is the case take it back and get another, or contact dremel as they are very helpful and should return it for u and send you a new one
The issue im having with my Flex is that if i fully tighten down to my 4000 it binds up and wont even turn at all. Feels like im going to fry out the motor.

I would pull the inter flex shaft write out and see if it's clean, and try again, it should slide into the square collet easy on the dremel itself then some times u need to move the outer shaft around so u can feel the inter flex shaft slide into the hadpiece itself before u screw ir back onto the dremel
HI Jordy does the flex-shaft work with a Dremel multi-chuck instead of with collets tia

They do. I use then on mine. Some people don't like to use the chuck because they say they don't get tight enough, but they have a place,(at the bottom of the chuck), to use the dermel wrench on if you need it tighter. Some just don't like the chuck but I use them all the time with no problems.

Sounds like a dirty switch. I don't know how old the dremel is, or you are, aging myself here, but in the old days when the TV channel knob had to be turned by hand to change channels, they would get dirty and not work right. We used contact cleaner to clean the channel dial inside the TV to clean the contacts. Don't know if that would help, but you might try spraying some contact cleaner into the switch and spin it several times. If you try this do it on an unplugged dermel and let the cleaner dry before you try it, unless the cleaner instructions say different. I don't think you would have to open the dremel, just spray some into the switch and rotate several times, but it might be necessary to get to the switch contacts. Not that hard to do. Contact cleaner is still available, used to clean plugs like stereo plugs from the amp to the speakers.

Sanding the brushes down like that will give the brushes less contact area than before which isn’t what you want
