- This video will show you how to use a DJ power strip that will allow you to use one foot control with up to 8 different tools. This is a very simple setup and anyone can do it. =)

4. Just watching my videos helps out too and I'm happy to see that I have been able to help some may people get into jewelry making.
I am currently out of town but I Will back home un two weeks. Thanks you for this video, and also the láser engraving machine. Regards!!!
Well safe travels and thanks for taking to time to watch my videos 😀👍
That’s a great idea! I’m going to have to look into getting one of those.
It has been super helpful so far. 😁👍
That's awesome! One of those why didn't I think of that ideas! 😂 Thank u so much!
No problem 👍
Excellent idea Randy!
Thank you, I thought it might help everyone out and so they don't have to buy so many foot controls. It should save time a money 😀👍
Ohhh this is kind of cool
What greater idea!! I was one of those ppl who used multiple foot pedals. Now, thanks to your genius.....I will be switching them out!! Thanx😊
Well I'm happy that I was able to help. Let me know how it works out for you. :)
Awesome idea!
Thanks 😁👍
Thanks! This is awesome! This will work great for me as my work area is very small and very cluttered with lots of stuff (my dining room table to be exact and I store a ton of stuff underneath the table. It's the drawbac of living in a small one bdrm apt.). I currently use a regular power strip and plug or unplug things constantly (like my pickle pot) and I have to sort of crawl under the table to do it and it's really a pain. I've got 4 items plugged into that power strip (so far) and so this would be super convenient! Thanks for sharing such great tips! : )
No problem and I'm happy to see that so many people like this setup. Just so you know you can only plug things into this that will be controlled by the foot control. So you will have to plug your pickle pot into a different outlet. 😁👍
Fantastic idea and thanks for kind of affirming that I don't have to try to find and old original Dremel brand foot pedal to work with rotaries.
Yep it's really just a power switch
Great idea
I buying a power strip now
Thanks...
Nice and thank you. 😁👍
Awesome video, just what I was looking for for my stained glass studio! Anyone ever tell you, your voice sounds like the actor Topher Grace! Thanks, Kristy😊
Thanks 😊 and I'm happy that you can use this setup. I have not heard that I sound like anyone yet, just that some people like how I sound haha I honestly don't like my voice but I think that is how most people are when they hear a recording of themselves 😂
@@GomeowCreations Yeah, I know the feeling being from the South! I always sound waaayyy too country! Lol! Your voice is very pleasing and easy to listen to. You're an excellent instructor! Keep up the good work! I'm learning a lot, Thanks 😊
Well thank you and I don't see anything wrong with a country accent haha. Well I hope you fine more of my work to be helpful and if you have any suggestions please feel free to let me know and I will try to work it into a video 😄👍
HI, I have that solder vent room, but haven’t seen it taped up to a exhaust tube. Cool. But it it exhausting just farther away, or did you cut a hole in the wall? And great idea for the switches! Going to use!Thanks!m
So I have it hooked up to a window fan and that is also in the window so it's just pushed outside 😁👍
연결방법을 알려주실수있나요?😊
I just started listening, while I've done this on my own hope people realize that the Foredom TX and LX are DC tools and use a DC foot controller and would not work with this idea...
...and of course. some AC motors will die if you try to run at less than full capacity. Hence the drill press.
Awesome! Thanks for another great video! Is the foot pedal universal for every tool and does it need to be a foredome foot pedal or can it be one from, say, harbor freight? Thanks, Randy! Cute kitty, by the way! 😻
You can use any foot pedal you like to make this work and this has worked with everything that I have plugged into it 😁👍
Hi i just came across your video which is very good by the way. I have a question, im a scale modeler and have a dremel 3000 and im getting a little sick of having to turn the thing on then off all the time when drilling or grinding multiple parts. i plan on getting a foredom ( when i can afford it ) so in the mean time i was curious would this work with the dremel and be able to control the speed of it with the foot pedal?? if i plug my dremel in at full blast then plug in the foot pedal would the foot pedal control the speed of said dremel?? thanks very much for your time.
So this will work with it but you will have very little control over the speed. Thing of it more of a of and on with the dremel. You can set your max speed and just leave it on so if you need to use it you just have to push the peddle.
Hi Adam, I used a Foredom foot pedal with my multi speed Dremel in just the way you described. It was not quite as smooth going from low to high speed as a Foredom flex shaft is, but it was quite serviceable.
i know imlate with asking a question but im just now getting into ring making and was wondering if this would work on a wood lathe
Normally with a lathe you just set it to one speed. This should work on it but I honestly have never tried 😅
@@GomeowCreations im learning so much right now thank you for replying
No problem, check out some more of my videos to get some of the basics down and if you have a question just leave a new comment on that video and I will try to get back to you ASAP 😁👍
@@GomeowCreations i will thank you again
sorry total newb here. Do you know if I can use the same foot petal and "dial speed control" that came with the powergraver with the SR Motor? I by accident ordered the power graver with pedal and dial speed control and they would not return it :( so hoping I could use the pedal and dial and just buy the SR motor and handpiece?? please advise!
It should work with the Foredom S, SR motors but not the Lx and Tx.
Check around I think you will find other videos that will show Foredom's working with other variable speed controls.
Hello, i have a 2 speed pottery wheel and am wondering if this will give me variable speed control..(switch to high, plug into pedal?) its proving to be a little tricky in getting a straight answer on this one.. thanks for any help :)
Maybe? This basically limits power so some electronics will change speed because of this but others will barely work and then need full power like my drill press it will start turning but it's really slow and kind of choppy or my old Dremel would do the same unless I push the pedal all the way down it would go to its maximum speed
@@GomeowCreations thanks SO much for the reply
By now you may have tried, usually NO! Likely a 2 speed motor that spins at @3500 or 1750 rpm and then reduced for the wheel mechanically. Same for grinders which can sometimes be 2 speed. If it has more than 2 speeds, you are likely fine.
