Awesome review brotha, from Albuquerque, your detail is on point throughout, and i can tell you have mad experience with dremels. I really want to dive into glass etching, looking forward to more vids!
i just got this kit as an early xmas present!!! i dunnno how to use it yet but i'm excited to learn and use it for crafts!! ty for posting this review !
I bought into dremel in the mid 90’s when they came out. For the last 30 years they have been DIY’er , papa in the garage toys / junk tools. This model is the first one worth owning for serious craftsman. It’s not perfect. But it’s worth it.
Great Video! Very close up and detailed. Thank you for showing what all the different parts do. By the way, the red Rouge is mainly for high shine, very little to no grit. Usually, used for the very last step in jewlery polishing.
Thank you brother. That Rouge included is low grade. I bought some cheapy polishing bars on Amazon that were better. For a sec I thought it was my little polishing wheel causing scratches. They I switched to the other stuff and realized the free stuff has inconsistent grit pieces and you’ll get a random scratch.
@@c0ld5teel I also have that in my kit also. Haven't tried it. Probably won't try it now. I bought all high grade Rouge. By the way, I'm a female, not a brother. Lol😂 Anyway, Your videos are good.
Great video, good clear sound, very informative, nice review of everything in the toolbox …16:52 it’s called a grinding disc and the thin disc is called a cutting disc(if I can add my two cents) but your video is awesome!… Im buying this after seeing this, I’ve always wondered if the Chinese fittings were just as good as dremel and always wondered why you couldn’t only use the quick-fastening-chuck for everything …you’ve answered all those questions, Thanks!
The brass colored wheel is a wood cutting wheel and I’ve used it to saw off a build in closet in my bedroom and I also cut off some 1924 kitchen cabinets. I still have it and use it for other jobs but in small spaces its perfect.
Hi, just found this video and two years late however still relevant in many cases. I would suggest you may have the wrong kit as so much is no use to you yet just about the lot was to me! Dremel covers so many uses it can be a challenge finding what kits one needs. You did appear to chalk off items fairly quickly!! I am such a Dremel fan and just love all the bits! I have 3 Dremel’s with 2 cables and 2 bench press type units and often I can avoid getting a power tool out and just Dremel instead. Keep it up, pleased I found you. Bob England
You can also use the wrench to tighten up the 3 jaw chuck as well. It has flats for the wrench right below where you hand tighten it if you prefer as well. Also the following is taken right from the dremel web site concerning the chuck and using like grinding and cut off wheels. Saying the chuck is not safe for these items is completely false! " The steel 3-jaw chuck can be used with all Dremel rotary tools and can be used with all bits with a 1/32 In. to 1/8 In. shank. Ideal for light-duty accessories including drill bits, sanding drums, polishing wheels, wire & bristle brushes, cut-off wheels, and more. Can be used with Dremel 225 Flex Shaft and the 575 Right Angle attachment."
I've been using a mastercraft dremel tool, its a cheap knock off and the tip would push in when you applied pressure, very hard to do detailed work so I just bought the dremel 4300-9/64 platinum should be a huge upgrade I'm sure it will improve my carvings! thanks for the review
Yeah the interchangeable chucks are nice on the Dremel. I mainly use the one that requires the little wrench, just to be safe. But the twist lock one seems ok too
Wanting to buy my first Dremel and it will be the 4300. My question is do u think this kit is worth the price for the contents or would you buy a base kit and add to it?
So yes all video jokes aside. I would still buy this tool. In regards to the base model vs the kit. I have a disgusting amount of attachments I never ever ever use. These both aftermarket and brand name. Dremels attachments are almost always better than the Chinese Amazon alternatives. It is hard for me to answer this question without knowing what you plan on using it for. For example if you were gonna polish jewelry, I’d buy just the tool and then buy the specific tips and polish needed. If you just want the tool to keep around “just in case” then buy the kit as it’s pretty all encompassing.
I tried someone else's Dremel before and liked it. I plan on getting my own, is THIS the one I should get for cutting, sharpening & polishing? Being my first one. You also know off hand what all the things are for.
I wouldn’t buy any other model. They have the battery powered version and I’m not into it. Ive heard people complaint about the weight. Well I use the flex wand 90% of the time and it’s like a pen.
The polish comes in small bars and in liquid. I use both depending on the job. The finer diamond grits are in small tubes like toothpaste. The coarser are commonly in colored bars which signify their grit type or function.
Working with the rotary shaft on wood can I put the tool in a sound muffling box and still do my work. Every reduction in decibels is important to me. Thanks.
I believe you mean the flex shaft? So sound emanates from two places. The first is the motor on the base of the unit. This is high pitch that increases with RPM. You may be able to isolate the base unit in a sound dampening box and run the flex shaft out so you can work quieter. Issue will be air flow to cool the unit. You will still get a low “whurrrring” sound at the tip of the shaft and more as it come in contact with objects.Bulk of the noise is the base unit which containers the motor through so dampening that will decrease the sound greatly.
@@c0ld5teel Thanks for your reply. I am thinking of an insulated box with an open back. I have Tinnitus, constant ringing in my ears and am very sensitive to loud noise. I can only work with power tools with both plugs and muffs. I love working with all my power tools and try to muffle the noise on every thing. I talked to someone from Dremel and they think I can tone it down so I ordered one yesterday.
@@kenanklovitch8117 Ken, my mom has the same thing. It’s brutal. I usually use my ear buds with noise cancellation while the tool is one and it’s negates a fair amount of mechanical noise. If I also used my noise cancellation over ear protection like I use for shooting would prolly be near 100%. But, the open back box with damping prolly be fine. At 5k-10k rpm is not terribly loud.
Ken I just ran the decibel meter on it. My ambient room is 44db at 900hz. At 5,000 rpm is 62db @ 3200hz At 15,000rpm is 73db @ 3300hz. So, it’s not terribly loud and 15,000 is the max I really ever use it at.
What bothers me is that this kit is 175.00-199.00 dollars and the tool chest is metal but the tool is all plastic and no rubber reinforcements if you drop it. The switches also seem cheaply assembled and are big failure points according to other users. Wish there was something very solid, can't find one anywhere. And thanks for your review.
I've always used the jewelers square stone to smooth out the grooves the grinding stone gets as you use them. Maybe it's not ment for that but works nicely. Just uhh, be sure to pay attention because it can hurt. Like if you sneeze and smack yourself in the forehead.... Yeah I'm accident prone lmao
Hi. Thank you for your video. Everything is nice, honest and clear. What do you think about Dremel 9100 model? The company pretends that it is a super heavy-duty model.
My personal option on that model is that there are other companies that sell a similar style and I would check around for a different company. The other issue with that model is that the flex shaft should not be used for things that require higher torque. Like heavier grinding or cutting tile. For that they recommend NOT using a flex shaft and using the tool directly.
@@ActiveRecreationCA I’ve used my 4300 for hard metal a lot. It’s what I bought it for and it works great. As long as I let the dremel do the work and not putting pressure on it it is just fine. It’s a fine detail tool and use it as such, I have found that some people use it like it’s a drill for carving tunnels and thinks it’s a much bigger tool than it is.
I use the wrench collet thing, not the thumb twist one. I haven't stripped it yet. Seems pretty substantial but it is plastic so i wouldnt beat on it too much. I wish it was metal but nope
Never see many unboxing vids where the host knows everything ahead of time😁 Way to correct yourself as appl. while exploring the nrw tool. Imo this makes for a more honest review by keeping it real even when it's not necessarily to your benefit .
I accidentally erase my previous reply ahm im from the Philippines paps i dont think so if amazon have that kind of offer from here. There's a store in my country that sell dremel but like what ive said before its too much expensive here than amazon then if you buy from amazon from here some times the shipping fee is higher than the price of the product hehehe 😹 but thank you and i really appreciate you yes i used the installments method for my sake hahaha thank you paps keep it up GODBLESS 👆👏🤗
Darn that’s unfortunate. For small detail work it is the superior tool. So many attachments and configurations. I have used this to polish horse shoes, brass buckles, and engraved a pocket knife. I didn’t take videos unfortunately only still frames but the next small restoration job I get I will def make a video.
Thas nice definitely dermel is veryy useful tools And i will watch your next video using dremel for your some diy project etc.and another cool stuff 👍👆👆👆👆
Yeah man its still alive. However, I don't use it as aggressively as i was. It's winter here in NY, and i wont pick back up again until the spring since i dont have warm garage to work in.
Nah what the manufacturer told me was that after prolonged use in summer heat the internals essentially fused. I was using this thing for hours at a time. Needless to say it was a torture test and it failed. Lesson learned, but they did replace it.
Weird, another video i watched from 10 mo ago, but viewed immediately before your video today, the dremel came with a chuck tip vs a dremel tip. Which I liked better... and from what I saw, it didn't have the items to switch out tips but you could it just wasn't in the kit.
Every Drexel I ever bought in the last 25 years broke, burned out and smoked and failed.All three were failures in days.Unbelievable but true.This video has same claims..How do they stay in business
My thoughts are he doesn't recomend using half the parts. So I'm like why shound I spend that kind of money. I guess if you really want the toolbox it might be worth it.
Why do you even have one ? I mean... honestly? you are so negative about everything it comes with. I feel like your expectations are way to high and your ignorance and inexperience on the tool and it's attachments really do not constitute a fair review.

Dusty, reviews should be critical, not sale pitches. If you want sales, I highly recommend going to the Dremel website and staring at all the pretty pictures and videos as much as you like. A critical reviewer should give you as much negative as possible so that the viewer can make their own decisions in avoiding a precipitous purchase. If you have exceptionally low expectations than I feel sorry for you.
@@gavinreece1051 buy the base model and get the attachments from Amazon. I’m on my third tool and counting. I’ll continue to buy them. The only attachment I use is the flex wand 99% of the time.

very nice the drill and its weight of the dremel platinum 9/64 the whole box which is thanks ... !!!
Glad it helped
i couldnt find it, whats the total weight?
@Erlan Flores Cruz Do u just ask every dremel 4300 review the weight?!?!
I only wish it came with plastic cushion instead of foam, much easier to clean and doesn't attract dust that much.
After use the adapter to run the right angle and the flex shaft otherwise it won't work the thing that looks like a hexagon and one of them
