Can Dreme Can acc'ys, such as the Dremel flex-shaft, be used w/this tool? Is the nose collet the same as Dremel? Or are you forced to buy Proxxon?

My Proxxon tool broke the second time I used to it, it's a real piece of junk. I purchased it based upon this so-called consumer reviews which I know him sure were fake. I replaced this tool with a Dremmel in the difference is night and day.

The collets are not interchangeable. All of the burrs / cutting & grinding bits are, however. Don't know for certain, but I doubt that the flex shaft is compatible with both. If you are a serious woodcarver, I highly suggest you invest in a Foredom product. They are tough,(I've had mine for 12+ years' w/ very hard use) powerful, has a super flex shaft & handpiece. Yes, more expensive but, light years ahead of either Dremmel or Proxon.

I do not really know but I have found the Proxxon tools to be of high quality and easy to use. I got mine for precision work, not anything heavy duty.

Gary, I'm not really sure. I'm fairly confident that you can get a valid answer by going onto Dremel's web site and contacting their customer support people.Pete

NOIt's TOO SMALLOr if you prefer, the Wen threaded shaft(s) are too big in diameter.I bought both of these together and the Dremel 4486 will NOT thread onto the tool or the quick shaft included with the Wen.

A flex shaft is an attachment that would be an extra purchase .Doesn't come with the kit. It is a long flexable shaft (cable inside flexible housing) which allows the ability to get into tighter places. I had one with my old dremel tool but did not use it due to complicity and ability. They make cutting disks but they are delicate and require finess to use without breaking.

You could get a bigger collet, but I'd recommend replacing the original w/ Dremel 4486 MultiPro Keyless Chuck. ($8.13) (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000302ZV/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc;=1) I love mine & it will accommodate most Dremel accessories.

FredI do not think there is any adaptor or collet that will fit a dremel drill. You will need a larger drill / stand to do 1/4"Bill D

I have used with both my Dremel and Black & Decker RTX and it works fine. Just make sure it is locked in tight before using.

I am not sure, I would recommend you call Dremel & I know they could help you find your answer.

The instructions I received with the router table indicated that it would work with the 4000 series Dremel tool if you have an additional collet accessory. They mention that you can contact them to receive this accessory. Perhaps it comes with certain 4000 kits?

not certain what dremel tool you're referring to but my answer would be no. You'll need at least a 3/8" check and a drill that develops a reasonable amount of torque. You're not looking for high speed. You need low speed and high torque.

No...only with Dremel "Trio" tool. Although you can change the collet (screw-on tip)of some Dremels within a certain size range, the collet needed to accommodate this size bit is just too big for thethe usual dremels and only works with their special Trio tool.

I don't own a Dremel, so not sure of set up... BUT, as long as the accessory has a straight shaft (standard rotary tool sized) it should chuck up into the B&D; just fine.

It should work fine for a Dremel tool and accessories. I would suggest using a foam insert cut to fit. Kaizen foam is superb.

Yes, they are the identical tool. I wouldn't be able to tell the difference if I picked up either one. All Dremel pieces work great (just make sure you have the right sized collet for the bit you're using).

No it will not work.Although Proxxon does sell a 4 jaw chuck that will work and which I have one and it work very good for this lathe.

You will be able to use all proxxon tools with this unit. I have used this for a couple of years and am very happy with this product.
