Sometimes you need a small tool to get into delicate intricate situations. Dremel has released the 8050 Micro, a lithium ion powered 8V max tool. It doesn’t have the power of its cordless counterparts, but it has great run time and fits in your hand like a pen. The ergonomics are great, I found it easy to control especially while engraving. It can cut, buff, drill, engrave,grind, sand etc.. It is pretty much limitless as to what you can do with this tool and Dremel accessories. It even comes with a small assortment of accessories like cut off wheels, sanding wheels, engravers etc.
The 4 LED light ring on the front of the tool does a great job of lighting up the work area. The charger base can charge the batteries on roughly 3 hours and 45 minutes. It has a plus and minus button to adjust the preset speeds. The tool cuts out when too much pressure is applied and you need to hit the on button to start it back up. Make no mistake this tool will not replace your bigger Dremel tools but it excels at small tasks. For the DIY type and hobbyist the tool is a no brainer. Best of all it’s under $90. Check out the Dremel 8050 via Amazon.
Dan what is the name of that extension cord you use? its really cool!!!
Hi Tim it is called the Robo Reel. It isn’t really that cool for the $$$ Doesn’t retract when it’s cold out.
Not a bad little tool to have around. I’ve had a larger one for quite a while.
I want one now. I have a corded version & like Dan mentioned the cord is always in the way. This one looks nice & compact with a nice led light & it looks like it will fit in hand nicely. These are great multi tools & great for detail work. I didn’t know this was out in the market. Need to shop around to find the best deal. Laters TIA
Hey Dan love the dremel but from about 6:05 you look like you have dreads and a rasta hat on… Was waiting for you to break out in a jam man!
I have a Dremel variable 6 speed corded tool and I love it. Having a cordless Dremel could only make my world better.
Dan, you should use this to carve a Jack-o-lantern.
