Yes 🙌 I’m number 40 I had chemo done yesterday and was not able to keep up with all my masters on repairs ! Ex being number one no lie but yes I did lie my father is my first hero and master ! Thank you 🙏 sir for all your hard work. !
I got one of the precision claw tipped surgical knifes. I'm ready for any future trace repair and I know the not so fun it will be working on 0.1mm but if you get it done that's good enough. 💪🏻😃
yea, which is good because a rotary tool could wander around and cause damage, this one just whips back and forth a few degrees and stays where you put it.
This be great for grinding legs on ports that don’t quite fit properly and need adjustments. It’s like a tiny dremel, looks like a really nice handy tool to have. Sometimes the dremel is too powerful, so this one would be great. Great videos as always👍
glad to see some one market these i use a nail dremel from china for the same reason to get into chips/ layers to repair, having it made available easier should help a lot of people.
Another use for the pen, you can connect it to a 3D printer and create your own tiny board design. And it becomes a grinding printer With a small fan that blows away the dirt let's say if small board is destroyed. (TouchPad) it is possible to create a cloned board. and assemble the components there. (not easy, but possible) I have to try this with my printer, lately I have abandoned her
use a dremel myself but its pretty big and bulky and i gotta plug it in an outlet, this little thing is pretty damn convenient in comparison for this type of work
Forever the salesman Alex hehe. Keep it up! Also, the pen looks pretty cool. You looked like you were having way too much fun cutting random components ahahaha.
interesting. I have been using a nail drill instead of a dremel, mostly because it is smaller and has much less bit wobble. This is even tinier, maybe a bit too tiny. Another good thing about nail drills is their quick-release chuck, it's really easy to swap bits. I like that cutting bit, i wonder if i can buy it separately. EDIT: btw, nail drills often come with foot pedals - extremely useful.
Like clockwork, whenever I see a new product on Aliexpress I see you pitching it here a week later. Always, lol. It would be nice to have a source for items in the US as opposed to waiting 30-60 days from China. I'd happily pay a $5-ish markup to get an item I need faster. I was about to grab one of these and maybe I'll just get one from your shop now rather than pay the $15-20 and then wait 45 days.
China is the source and no doubt it's cheaper. If you don't mind the shipping time or customer support, then by all means buy direct. When imported to the USA, we have to pay Customs, Tax, Shipping, Credit card fees, not counting store overhead, packing supplies, the person packaging the items and the 101 things that goes along with making all this happen. We don't really have to explain prices, but everything that we sell is priced low after calculating above mentioned expenses. We run a very busy ecommerce site and with large volume of orders that we get daily it all makes sense. Without your support, we would not have a successful shop whether it's repair or ecommerce. People usually buy to support us for the tremendous effort that it takes to create RUclips content. Some just donate without buying anything as a thank you for the knowledge shared. Without your support non of this would be possible.
@@NorthridgeFix For sure. I was wanting to buy those copper lugs/pads a while back but after emailing I was told it would be a while. After waiting a bit I just grabbed them from Aliexpress...and I'm still waiting a month later, haha. I've been wanting one of these pens so I'll likely just grab it off your store. As I said, I'd happily pay a fair markup to have a local/in-country source for items I usually have to go to China for. Keep it up and thanks!
i notice that the usb charger has the meeter connected to it but I thought the USB charger is also capable of showing the same info as the meeter ?... can you tell why or if I am mistaken?
Kinda wanna get your shipping info so i can send you my msi laptop. Have an issue with my two usb on the right side not working pc doesnt recognize whats plugged in but it does provide power :/
theres a easy diy version of this if you got a electric toothbrush, just take a cable screw terminal (the ones with 2 screws), and screw it onto the oscillating shaft, put a engraving bit in the other end. done. this is basically that, it isnt a rotary tool like a dremel, its oscillating
@@KimoKimochii Cumbersome, not profitable, risky, lack of schematics, lack of replacement parts, takes too much time, lots of future failures after repairs resulting in unwanted warranty work and having to deal with angry customers that lack understanding. Basically any reputable establishment quit this type of work long ago.
I don't like the usability on the pen in regards to setting the speed. However it does look more comfortable compared to let's say Dremel's flex shaft. Given the amount of work that you do on a daily basis though, something with a cable power and not battery is probably better choice. I doubt you can use the pen and also charge it at the same time.
( 4:24 ) according to Bobby Duke's Art, that is a diamond bear. 💎 🐻 but this one is obviously not a dremel.... what's the difference between a dremel and a grinding pen anyway..? 🤔🤔🤔😄😄
You get more precision holding a pen compared to Dremel. It's also wireless without the weight. It's not as powerful as a Dremel, but more then sufficient for board work at a fraction of the cost.
Yes, it's all about PRECISION but in a nice. light compact tool. Would you do surgery using a chainsaw? I don't think so. A big bulky Dremel would be too cumbersome for micro work. There are many other uses as well, I do repair work on antique china and glassware. I look forward to using this to fix these items. Grinding away chips and dings to prep the area for the repair material.
@@NorthridgeFix yeah I have mini dremel but still too bulky and I’ll add this to my collection for troublesome phone screw😍 (since I encounter the problem back then that really need this kinda very small cutting disc🥲)
most masks can be removed with hot soldering iron by genlty scratching the surface plus then you apply solder in the same time and lose no copper thickness.
Looking at the video, I need to raise a warning. BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU ARE CUTTING BOARDS WITH POWER TOOLS!! Boards are made of silicon and, if you inhale that dust which is generated from the cutting , you are in high risk to develop pulmonary silicosis. AGAIN, PLEASE AVOID CUTTING BOARDS WITH POWER TOOLS!! If you really have to, DO NOT LET THAT SILICON DUST TO GO IN YOUR LUNGS!!!
I am an immigrant too and what I can tell is silica dangers are a joke for most immigrants or 3rd world countries. I see people cutting glass while refurbishing phones. No mask no fucks given. Any safety device is waste of money in our country. Which is a shame.
Yes 🙌 I’m number 40 I had chemo done yesterday and was not able to keep up with all my masters on repairs ! Ex being number one no lie but yes I did lie my father is my first hero and master ! Thank you 🙏 sir for all your hard work. !
So much power in a pretty useful tool... Another "must-have" tool. Thanks, Alex!!!
Just ordered one from You. Excellent addition to my tool case.
I got one of the precision claw tipped surgical knifes. I'm ready for any future trace repair and I know the not so fun it will be working on 0.1mm but if you get it done that's good enough. 💪🏻😃
So, it's like a tiny rechargeable Dremel. Also, it's called a "Pilot Hole".
"Pilot hole" and "bit walking"
a dremel is a rotary tool. this one oscillates. basically a electric toothbrush with a grinding bit strapped to it.
@@gamerpaddy I didn't realize this. So, you're saying it basically "vibrates"??
yea, which is good because a rotary tool could wander around and cause damage, this one just whips back and forth a few degrees and stays where you put it.
@@gamerpaddy Where the hell did you pull that out of? This is a rotary tool.
Sold it to me within a couple seconds of seeing it in use. This will be such a huge time saver.
This could come in very handy, thanks for the demonstration.
Very nice tool. Looks very handy and usefull. Nice and good explainings alex. Thank you for that video

Could be helpful to remove stripped screws on a board. I use a Dremel but this tool with the small grinding wheel would be perfect for this job.
Alex got a static shock from the capacitor at 13:15😂 I like to get electric shocks, every time my finger flies

I should plug you into this Old Jefferson Starship guitar I have Lightning Fingers... :-)
Nice !!! I'll been looking for like pen that thanks
Wow, you got a new tool for better work. Good job.
Boys and there toys lol. Nice addition to your tool collection. You can see how happy you are with it
use a dremel myself but its pretty big and bulky and i gotta plug it in an outlet, this little thing is pretty damn convenient in comparison for this type of work
Thank you for this useful demonstration of this tool.
Awesome tool Alex. Great price too.
Great job, keep it up Alex!
You should try a glass fiber pen to remove solder mask. Its more reliable and you could work with it more gently.
I have one, super handy.
Actually just got something similar to this to upgrade my old one to USB-C.
Been using a battery powered engraver for years. Works a peach.
Superb bit of kit. 👏👏👏👏
This looks pretty good. I picked up 2 👍.
It's like Dremel's younger, more disruptive brother!
Oh no this is now $38. But looks like a great tool to have.
Ya imma end it
Good stuff👍
I have one of this, just say it's a must have for any diy or repair job.
Forever the salesman Alex hehe. Keep it up! Also, the pen looks pretty cool. You looked like you were having way too much fun cutting random components ahahaha.
don't we all?
The man with the COoL tool(s). I want one..
Awesome tool ,,useful 1 to have on the bench
Thought you would've demonstrated cutting through a shield with the Cutting-bit.
So nice that I could not refrain from putting an order, tks
For small strokes, I like to use a fine needle, but I can see myself using this for some spots with corrosion.
Alex: AAH forgot to cut my nails for the video
Alex: GRR pen here
Alex: Looks roughs
TAKES POLISHING BIT
Alex: Ready!
😂😂
How cool a Review can be … thanks… nice tool
AMAZING! ....BETTER THAN FACTORY...😁
You can use the polishing bit to clean contact pads. I usualy use a eraser a IPA
Tooth repair better than factory dentist 😁
Very good video.DO you ship to south African

Wow great tool, kindly show us the polishing tool, try with a rusted housing like the samsung note 3 housing
where can I buy the mentioned 0,35 diameter bits? can't find anything online

Working that car salesman on us. :-)
Zabardast knowledge..men's well done knowledge
Every working man has experience, but this experience expand with tools he uses
Hmm that seems pretty useful saves possibly cutting they traces when trying to scrape back solder mask. Might have to get that some time
i notice that the usb charger has the meeter connected to it but I thought the USB charger is also capable of showing the same info as the meeter ?... can you tell why or if I am mistaken?
I have an es121 electric screwdriver, if only I had a bit that would convert it to a grinder like this tool.
Thanks 👍
Happy Diwali
Time to grind some Dallas-Chips then.
So where is the link to buy this grinding pen, as it looks cool item
Kinda wanna get your shipping info so i can send you my msi laptop. Have an issue with my two usb on the right side not working pc doesnt recognize whats plugged in but it does provide power :/
اختراع جيد نشكرك على معلومات good

Which Flir model do you use?
l want to buy magnifying glass lamp.

If the polishing bit removes small scratches I will buy
I thought that it will stop during that cap cut. It sounds like it would if you cut it all the way.

what's the difference between a dremel and a grinding pen anyway..?
🤔🤔🤔😄😄
nice one, love your videos, and yes first
Sir which iron are you using and which SMD are you using plis tall me I am from India pls tal Me
Don't forget your eye protection when using such tools
Yes, for sure, and also a respirator so as not to breathe in that silicon dust.
@@barryinglaterra and that fiber glass PCB dust 🚫🚫
Thanks for sharing but for a sec I thought I was watching telebranding 😁
Sir are you fix only laptop?
Let's just drill a hole in my customers Mercedes Benz Fob... Perfect! See no problems. 🤣
I love this tool
So just a USB-C battery powered Dremel equivalent.

That is very cool!
Watches random video... I want that tool!
It would be good if you sold an assortment of spare bits.
An adapter for Dremel bits would be good, nice tool.
Too much weight + centrifugal force
Or just use a Dremel. Better quality and last longer.
Need tracking number for grinding pen
To get ISP pin people use to drill CPU to unlock phone without losing data .
Awesome ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
Wow, now we can do segery with electronics
Exiting mr.Alex
cool 👍
where do i get it?
northridgefix.com/product/grinding-pen-for-traces-repair-chip-grind-cut-hole-7-tips-battery-operated/ It should be back in stock soon
great job
I think I will buy one
Something like a dentist's drill would be even better. A pneumatic turbine is easier to get high torque and speed in a small size.
the boards on the table: we are in danger
Nice pen
most masks can be removed with hot soldering iron by genlty scratching the surface plus then you apply solder in the same time and lose no copper thickness.
Or just use the abrasive retractable pen with the fiber glass rod insert that I've used for decades.
