n8n82250 Posted November 1, 2016 Report Share Posted November 1, 2016 So my dremel 3000 shaft is starting to get stripped and I cannot take out the sanding drum. I'm looking at the dremel 4200, does anyone have an idea on how well they work and would anyone recommend me a better corded rotary tools if so, I need your help.Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffmcmillan Posted November 1, 2016 Report Share Posted November 1, 2016 The collet nut is stripped? Replacing it would be a lot cheaper. I've heard the quick release has some bugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
