Dremel says the smaller size of the 8050 Micro allows it to be held between your thumb and forefinger like a pencil, which gives the user more control and accuracy. The smaller internal 8V lithium-ion battery—with less weight at the back... ]]> Thu, 31 Jul 2014 09:10:00 -0500 https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/News/dremel-upgrades-entry-level-multi-max-oscillating-tool-201309271520/ https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/News/dremel-upgrades-entry-level-multi-max-oscillating-tool-201309271520/ Oscillating tools are getting better and cheaper as the years go by, as is evidence by the new Dremel MM30 Multi-Max, which delivers 14% more cutting speed over the previous model (MM20) and it's expected to retail for only $99. MT. PROSPECT, Ill. – The Dremel brand is introducing a versatile new oscillating tool to its Multi-Max line—the Multi-Max MM30. The MM30 features an increased oscillation angle, offering a 14 percent faster cutting speed than its predecessor, the MM20. The highly versatile MM30 is the perfect tool for repairing, remodeling and restoring.

Usually you can find deals for only one brand at a time, but this time there are cash off deals from Bosch, DeWalt, Dremel, and more. You can head over to Amazon right now if you are in a hurry to save, or you can see some of the deals broken down below. $25 off $100 on select Bosch purchase.

These are unlike previous carbide oscillating blades that feature only carbide grit. Carbide grit blades are only really useful for limited applications, but actual carbide teeth blades can be used in a wide variety of applications. The new Dremel MM485 blade should last longer than standard oscillating blades and cut faster in normal applications. Dremel says they can also make cuts into much harder materials, such as hardwood,... ]]> Mon, 22 Apr 2013 07:00:00 -0500 https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/News/dremel-lawn-garden-sharpening-kit-gets-you-ready-for-spring-201304121422/ https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/News/dremel-lawn-garden-sharpening-kit-gets-you-ready-for-spring-201304121422/ To help you get ready for spring time lawn and garden work Dremel has come out with the new Dremel 100-LG Lawn and Garden tool sharpening kit. The kit includes everything needed to maintain and sharpen the most common lawn & garden tools. Included in the 100-LG kit is a no frills 100 series Dremel Rotary tool, cutting and grinding stones, and attachments that can be used to sharpen chainsaws, lawnmower blades, garden shears and more. The 100 Series Dremel is only a single speed, but at 35,000 RPM it has all the speed you need... ]]> Fri, 12 Apr 2013 07:56:22 -0500 https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/News/dremel-relaunching-their-70-year-old-moto-saw-201210031299/ https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/News/dremel-relaunching-their-70-year-old-moto-saw-201210031299/ In the 40's Dremel came out with what was basically a powered coping or fret saw. This tool they called the Moto-Saw was pretty revolutionary for its time and they even advertised it as "more like magic than any tool you ever saw". Seventy plus years later Dremel has a new version of the Moto-Saw that still looks like a fancy powered fret saw but can also be mounted in a stand and used as a small scroll saw. While I really like the idea of the Moto-Saw, I feel that the current specs limit its abilities.... ]]> Wed, 03 Oct 2012 08:41:52 -0500 https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/News/new-dremel-cutting-knife-and-drywall-jab-saw-blade-for-oscillating-tools-201207111244/ https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/News/new-dremel-cutting-knife-and-drywall-jab-saw-blade-for-oscillating-tools-201207111244/ Dremel has come out with a couple of new oscillating tool accessories that really expand the versatility of oscillating tools and should give you even more chances to use the Multi-Max on your projects. Both new accessories move away from the standard push blade model and instead cut when you pull the tool. Oscillating tools are already excellent at cutting drywall but they are not really that great at cutting curves in drywall. To address that problem Dremel has come out with the new MM435 Multi-Max Drywall Jab Saw Blade. The MM435 has a pointed blade that... ]]> Wed, 11 Jul 2012 07:00:00 -0500 https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/hot-deals/huge-saving-on-cordless-dremel-multi-max-kit-201202111114/ https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/hot-deals/huge-saving-on-cordless-dremel-multi-max-kit-201202111114/ It is my opinion that if you are a professional carpenter, you should own both a corded and a cordless oscillation tool. The corded for when you need to do a lot of work, and a cordless for quick cuts and when you need to move around a lot. Unfortunately we cannot all afford to spend $300 to get both tools. Today only, Amazon has the cordless Dremel Multi-Max for only $73, and that is for a New kit. The kit includes a couple blades and a sanding pad to get you started, and also comes... ]]> Sat, 11 Feb 2012 01:29:26 -0600 https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/News/new-tool-less-multi-max-oscillating-tool-from-dremel-201109091024/ https://www.old.toolrank.com/tool-blog/News/new-tool-less-multi-max-oscillating-tool-from-dremel-201109091024/ Are you ready to throw out your hex-wrenches and go tool free? After I just finished my review of both Bosch multi-tools, Dremel comes out with news of their new tool-less MM40. This lack of a tool-less feature is one of complaints with the current Bosch offerings, but not because they require tools, only because they require tools that can easily be lost. The new MM40 from Dremel also gets a power boost up to 2.5 amps from 1.5amps. This puts the power rating up with the big boys, and offers a variable speed... ]]> Fri, 09 Sep 2011 20:25:42 -0500
