Dremel 100

The Dremel 100 is very much an entry level rotary tool. It has a small motor and only one gear. If you are looking for a tool that can do it all, the Dremel 100 will disappoint you. On the other hand, if you are looking for a cheap tool for small, but not super-fine engraving work, the Dremel 100 might just be your best option. Its small size makes it handle better than all other Dremels short of the Fortiflex.

Ultimately the Dremel 100 is the best option for anyone starting out. It is a useful tool and a fair value. Even if you choose to upgrade later, the poor handling of the larger models means there will still be room for the Dremel 100 at your crafting station.
