This may not belong in general, if not please move it.


I got a brand new dremel for christmas, and I was wondering what number bits you use for certain things.


1.Removing barrel posts?
2.Cutting brass pipe?
3.Cutting the plastic case?
4.Cutting springs?
5.Cutting/Sanding PVC?


I know I should use a special saw or something for PVC and brass, but I would like to use my dremel.

Also, do heat guns work for securing loose plastic parts, like the coupler thing on the Nf? It keeps on coming out.

Use the cutting wheels for everything but sanding pvc. For sanding things use the sanding drum.

You might also like to use the cylindrical cutter (made of metal) for cutting parts of the shell of some nerf, as well as for working on restrictors depending on what feels comfortable. In general the disc cutter is your best friend though. In case you don't know this, never ever use the metal bits on metal parts, use the disk or sand parts on metal.

Thanks, also do you know the average price for a bit? I couldn't find any information at dremel.com

They're usually about $3-5 depending on what it is.
