Dremel 120-Volt Engraver Rotary Tool with Stencils - Crafting Machine Perfect for DIY Personalizing and Engraving Leather, Metal, Glass, and Wood , Black, 290-02

Exactly as described, good shipping, works well to engrave keys so I know what they go to, and to put my initials on tools.

Got this for my adult son for his birthday, at his request. He uses it to uncover fossils, along with some attachments he got to go with it.

This was my first dremel tool, and I was worried that it would be difficult to use. This thing is surprisingly easy to use and put together. I bought some metal blanks and recorded a message, printing out the image of the wavelength. I then taped the printout onto the blank and traced over the image with the dremel tool. It transferred and etched the image into the blank quite nicely and made cute little gifts for family and friends.I love that this tool can be held like a pencil, which makes it very easy to control. It comes with a stencil for small lettering, which is helpful, too. I have used this quite a lot for about 6 months now, and it has held up quite nicely.The tip insertion point doesn't seem like it would hold up well, and it never seems to be tight enough for my taste. I was worried that it would come out while I was using it, but that hasn't happened yet. Also, it is quite loud. I am sure this is normal for a dremel, but the noise and the vibration do take some getting used to for a newbie.It is a very affordable and simple way to get started with using a dremel tool. There are lots of bits that can be purchased that will enable you to do more, but the one it comes with is a good size for a beginner.All in all, I am very pleased with this purchase.

It's great for starting out doing fossil prep. They also sell a diamond bit that can be purchased separately and there are a couple sites that have custom bits purpose built for it. It's more difficult than I had thought, as I have mostly worked with limestone of middle TN. But what is shown in the picture is sandstone I think and it just chips away at that like butter. It will become easier once I get ahold of the better bits. Only gripe is that it's loud and the wife complains lol

Purchased the Volt Engraver, and it has become a favorite of my husband's. He thoroughly enjoys using it, finding it to be a valuable tool. The engraver has met his expectations, and its performance has impressed him. It has quickly become an appreciated addition to his tools, demonstrating its effectiveness and ease of use. Overall, this Volt Engraver has earned his approval and proven to be a worthwhile purchase for anyone looking for a reliable and enjoyable engraving tool.

Used this engraver on all my shop tools and it did a great job, would buy again

You're going to want to buy this because it's 1) 25 or so dollars and 2) it's a Dremel.Please reconsider. This is just a bad product.Here are some reasons:1) This is NOT a rotary tool. The engraving bit does NOT spin. It vibrates. The vibrating element is housed in the rear of the unit. If you've ever pulled a heavy trailer with a small truck, then you know that it's a bad idea to have something heavy, swinging back and forth at the opposite end of the thing you're trying to control.The point? Good luck drawing/cutting a straight line with this thing. Curves are a fantasy. It's hard as hell to hold, all the weight is in the back of the unit and it is constantly shaking. Whoever designed this does not actually engrave things.2) This is the LOUDEST, smallest tool I (unfortunately) own. Imagine a dentist's drill, drilling into sheet-metal, inside an echo chamber and you're halfway there. I am not sure why the Dremel company thought that this product was ready to go without a surgeon general's warning about the threat to human hearing. Please do not use this without serious ear protection.3) No power. For as loud as this thing is. It sure isn't powerful. Press it as much as you want. Nothing will be engraved, but you will lose feeling in your hand from the vibration.4) It feels cheep. It is cheap and it feels cheap. This feels like the first version of a college engineering students freshman build project. Or something a friend fabricated with a 3D printer and off the shelf parts. I've seen prison tattoo guns that look more sophisticated than this piece of junk. Really disappointed in Dremel.5) This is not a quality product. This is a cash grab. This is Dremel doing some fast market research and realizing that it could invest $15 into an terrible engraver and see a $10 profit on the sale of each unit. I really like Dremel. I used to own one of their rotary machines until it crapped out after about 10 years. The difference is...I paid good money for that one. I relied on the Dremel name and got burned.This is a piece of junk.Save your $25.

as promised, thank you
