All-In-One Operation
The Dremel Work Station gives you the flexibility to tackle hobbies, fix-it renovations, or special projects without having to invest in a variety of separate tools and attachments. Its stable, sturdy design lets you perform low-torque, high-speed jobs like drilling holes in metal to make earrings and bracelets, or sanding even the most detailed pieces of an architectural model. Measuring 56 square inches, and offering a drill depth of two inches, the sturdy, slotted base has four clamping points, while a rack and pinion feed lever ensures smooth, accurate operation.

Flexibility for Intricate Work
Whether you're buffing stones or sanding parts of a radio-controlled airplane, you'll appreciate that you can tilt the Dremel Work Station in 15-degree increments from 15 to 90 degrees horizontal -- perfect for more focused, intricate work. When you're grinding or polishing materials, the tool holder prevents slippage by keeping tools at 90 degrees, and the telescoping FlexShaft tool stand lets you adjust to any height between 16 and 29 inches. Once you've finished working for the day, place bits, collets, and wrenches in the tool caddy for easy clean-up and storage.

Easy Setup and Durable, User-Friendly Design
Easy to set up and operate, the Work Station features straightforward, durable construction. Clips keep messy cords from obscuring your visibility as you work, and inch and metric markings on the base allow for precise measurements and ensure that your adjustments are consistent, too. Compatible rotary tools attach and detach smoothly so you can polish, grind, or drill holes in stone, metal, or glass for rivets, eyelets, or cold connections of any sort.

Customer Reviews

An excellent accessory
This is an excellent accessory for the already-versatile rotary tool. The trick to its use is to recognize the inherent limitation of all rotary tools.

They are high-speed, low-torque tools. The work is done in the same way that a dentist's drill works: Very light pressure lets the bit in effect shave away the material. As the manual says, you need to adjust the tool so the bit is very close to the workpiece, then slowly lower the bit into it.

This means you can't use the Dremel drill press the same way you would use a full-size drill press, where you can bear down on the lever and force the bit to dig into the work. If you try to use it that way, you'll get the "slop" that some other reviewers mention.

When it's used correctly-- and the manual makes it very clear how to do so-- this is a very good accessory to have.

Another Good Dremel accessory
This press is great for all those little odd jobs. As a hobbyist, I use this item often. The slop others mentioned in other reviews can easily be removed by adjusting the 4 set screws to snug things up and tightening the other nuts and bolts in the assembly. Any press will flex if its forced beyond its intended limits. When used as intended. This press does everything it claims and more. The fact it can be adjusted to work as a bench grinder only adds to it value. When combined with a cross-slide mini vise. It will also work as a mini bridgeport for light machining. I would have given it a 5 star rating. But because I had to take the whole thing apart and reassemble it the way it should have been done at the factory. I gave it a 4. All in all, its still a great addition for anyone that owns a Dremel.

One of the better "work stations" I've seen.
Dremels' work station for their rotary tool is a great little station. You are able to bolt it onto your workbench if you prefer. Some folks don't think you need to but I like to work with different jigs and such and need a very stable base, so I bolt mine. And along that line of thinking is the fact that you can tilt the tool anywhere from 15° to 90° which will help you when you want to turn it into a sanding and polishing tool for more intricate work.
It has a great little tool "caddy" which they like to call the "Crows nest" that you can store some of your more favorite bits. Or the way I use it is to place the bits and collets I'm going to use for whatever project that I'm working on at the time because I put all my bits and things up when done and cover the station to prevent dust build up.
The telescoping tool stand holds the tool when you are using the FlexShaft(tm). The base of the station has both metric and standard symbols as does the depth gauge.
All in all it's a great station for the rotary tool. But, the one little drawback that I've found in my working with it is that with other stations like this one, the others usually have a strap to clamp the upper portion of the tool securely to the tool stand. I find this helpful when drilling fine holes into decorative stones that I tumble and polish. Without that strap, using the the fine diamond drill bits will sometimes try to "travel" across the stone which will cause scratch marks. But, the great feel that the handle gives you allows me to prevent that by very delicately bringing the bit down to the stone in minute strokes until the bit has the hole started and then it's drilling as usual when using a fine diamond drill bit. That's why I give this station a 4 out of 5. Really I'd like to give it a 4½ stars but that's not one of the choices! Also the great deal I got buying this tool through Amazon.com beats all other sites and stores. So guys, show the wife the tool, what can be done with it and the low price, and you'll be getting yours in the mail soon!
