What are you drilling? I only ever use a small hand held pin vise and at times just twirl the drill bit with my fingers.

I've been wondering the same thing. I'm in the process of building a control box to slow down a single speed Dremel, but if there's anything better?

instead of using my big Dremel i bought 2 of this JENABOM Electric Grinding Tool off TEMU. 5 speed. great for lite grinding or drilling. image.png.2d629330651f8294cf1261b2148507be.png

How sturdy is the Collet on this drill?

I like my Tamiya Handy drill. Much better control with the pistol grip.

Low speed and plenty of torque.

Only comes with 2 collets.

But I found the collets from the Pro Edge pin vise fit

Not cheap, but its worth the cost and the usual Tamiya quality.

Dremel collets also work in the Tamiya drill. They don't look as if they will work but once you screw the nut on they fit nicely.
