Dremel 565 1/8" Multipurpose Rotary Tool Spiral Guide Cutting Attachment Kit, Cutting Guide, and 3 Accessories, 4 pieces

Dremel tools are quality built fairly priced and long lasting.

I'm all the time tinkering and modifying my gold prospecting hobby equipment. Love using Lucite for my builds. This bit is the ONLY way to cut lucite and have it not shatter. Buy more than one, because you'll always be misplacing this bit if you only have one.

just what needed to finish my project

Good quality to decent price

Works

I needed to carve three 1/4" grooves on a 1x4 slab of common wood to replace a broken side in my attic pull-down ladder. This tool worked perfectly for the job. I used the #561 cutting bit for wood, which is one of 3 that come with the kit (and the only one that works for wood). My Dremel 3000 has 5 speed settings, and I found that the 2nd fastest worked best. The bit ate through the wood with very little effort and the guide kept the 1/4" depth consistent throughout. It performed beautifully! I only wish the cutting guide was made of metal. While it held up for this project really well and feels sturdy enough, I can see it wearing out with repeated or heavy use. It shouldn't be a problem for sporadic projects, hence my 4-star rating on the quality of the product.

This attachment worked fine. Hardest part is having to move slowly to avoid breaking bit. You can't go fast as the bit is thin and not made to cut quickly. Oh, and need I say it, have a vacuum on as this will create a some dust.

Works good for what I am using it for !

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When making wood frames and precision cuts, I have been using the Dremel TRIO for over a decade. The bit that came with the original tool was the best I've ever used and after sharpening several times, I was in need of a replacement. This bit does okay and if the other bit is never available again, (as it looks to be, just like the TRIO), then I will be okay. For me, doing away with the Trio and it's parts is sad, and Dremel should feel the same. The very small group of people who used this tool do not provide a large money base and that's the law of supply and demand. Would I recommend this product, only because its the only one available. Sorry Dremel, just telling it like the customer I am, the truth.

So far this has got to be the worst Dremel attachment I have ever bought. Obviously not much thought was put into the design on this one. When the single locking screw is tightened it causes the guide to pull to one side and become unlevel. Would have been much better with locking screws on both sides.
