Hi guys, I just bought myself a christmas present (well not really, I just wanted it haha), it's a Dremel 4000, the 'Platinum' version with an aluminum chest and all kinds of addons.
Now, I already have enough purposes for it, from creating small parts for all kinds of applications, but it is also very handy to make small adjustments to printed parts with. The only problem is all this plastic dust that literally gets everywhere.

What I'm wondering, what do YOU use a Dremel for, or, do you guys even have a Dremel?..
I'm planning to build a small table in which I can mount the Dremel so it can be used as a small milling device and maybe in the future, when my current 3D-printer is finished, I might start building a 3D-milling machine that uses the Dremel as a router.
Today I only got around to try out all the common tools, and I made a beautiful hole in some material I had laying around (lol, really, first time I have a nice hole cutter!).
Would be great to also see pictures of the uses you all have for it. Maybe it can be an inspiration for other Reprappers!
