I'm in the sewing machine sales & service business, and the foot control you bought is the preferred type that I personally use on my own Dremel rotary tool. I tried the electronic sewing machine pedals and they don't provide you with the infinitely variable speed that a carbon pile foot control does. I also have a nichrome wire pedal that I use. I also have a Harbor Freight type flex shaft grinder - in which I use the OEM GENUINE FOREDOM Pedal on.
Oh yes but just bear in mind that there is a tradeoff that you can't go at low speed for too long as those carbon piles are basically variable resistors and they have a tendancy to overheat.
I've been looking on the internet for a purpose made foot pedal for my dremel without luck, I came across your video on RUclips, your video is helpful to a degree but not to the majority of viewers. I was hoping that you would have explained the process step by step for adapting the foot pedal to the dremel for those of us that aren't as in the know as you. It would have been useful to know what suitable type of pedal to buy or where you actually bought yours from and how much you paid for it. Thanks for the video it gives me something to show my go to guy.
I am looking for a way to adjust this pedal. This is the only video with the same pedal as the one I have. I need to adjust it as i now need to press it harder for it to sew. Does anyone know where I can get help. Because of the lockdown I cannot take the machine to the local dealer.
I wanna use a 12V 10A DC motor with a switching power supply (12V 15A), but I want to build a carving micromotor with a push button switch to maually operate motor (like foot pedal or something) but the motor has huge start current, so those numerous starts and stops doesn't damage the power supply? and is there need to add caps to reduce initial current or the supply will be fine? p.s: someone told me to use a 220VAC to 12VAC transformator with a rectifying bridge but I don't know what type, V and A of the bridge and which power supply is better for this.
Actually, the transition period - while on the resistive load - is the time of highest risk. Once at full power the switch engages (that washer on a rivet thing)
@@kazzle101 As long as you've given it due consideration, and this isn't a place of work, and I haven't put a sticker on it, then I think this device can be safely ignored by the regulations.

I'm an absolute enthuusiast of the carbon pile foot controls. I still didn't find anything that can completely replace their utility.

Hello, I have updated the description with some further build information and some links.

I realize it is kinda randomly asking but do anybody know a good site to stream new tv shows online?

@Louis Arturo Thanks, signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) I appreciate it!
can you show us again how to open the bag ?

As a certified PAT tester I suggest you don't put your foot fully to the floor - no more than 64% - otherwise it's probably ok.
