<p>Mick,</p>
<p>It's not ''cheap''--- it's less expensive.</p>
<p></p>
<p>There are various Dremel 4000 series rotary tool kits, </p>
<p>that range in price from $79 to $185.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Some kits include more accessories than others.</p>
<p>I you plan to use all the accessories, then it's more economical to get the high-end set with all the accessories.</p>
<p>Buy the time you piece meal it together, it'll cost more.</p>

<p>Mick,</p>
<p>Happy to hear you're enjoying your new tool.</p>
<p></p>
<p>I find the rotary tools can be use for almost any hobby or DIY project, as well as for repairs.</p>
<p>Mine is always out on the workbench, for at-the-ready access.</p>
<p></p>
<p>A cordless version, always goes with me to a job site.</p>

<p></p>
<p>The ''brown'' color cut-off disc is a very brittle material.</p>
<p>It does not flex---it can easily fracture. </p>
<p>It's an excellent material for specific uses.</p>
<p>Use caution when using this wheel---and by all means, wear safety glasses or perhaps a face shield.</p>
<p>If the disc explodes during use, and a small particle flying off from spinning at 25000 rpm,</p>
<p>could drive that small particle right into your eyeball.</p>
<p>(It'll bring tears to your eyes).</p>
<p></p>
<p>The reinforced cut-off wheel material, is made with a mesh base, with the abrasive particles bonded to the mesh.</p>
<p>This type cut-off wheel, is similar in construction to the industrial type cut-off wheels, that can be used in high-speed cutting machines.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Various types of cutoff wheels are intended for specific uses---</p>
<p>for cutting plastics, stone, wood, as well as metal.</p>
<p>The discs are marked, for their intended use.</p>
<p></p>
<p>The mesh disc wears rapidly, when cutting hard materials.</p>
<p></p>
<p>For some heavy-duty cutting, I'd suggest using an angle grinder, with and applicable suitable cut-off wheel.</p>

<p> I have a dremel tool. Some of the dremel packages come with cutoff wheels that are brown and they are not for cutting. Ken, showed you one that is fairly new. They are called reinforced cutting wheel. If you have an accessory panel where your wife buys the dremel; you could buy extra cutoff wheels because they get used up pretty quickly if you are cutting a lot of nails and screws. You could buy extra items if you run out of something. They have section were you could buy accessories here in the US. I don't know about the UK.</p>
