I saw a thread on the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/london-hack-space/fBhqgZ9WvnU mailing list], and someone asked me down in the workshop, where we keep the Dremels now.

* Drilling pcb holes | |||
* Finishing cylindrical holes in 3d printed objects (for bolts and rods etc) | |||

* Light cutting with disk | |||
