Amazing idea using a Dremel.
btw, does anybody know which is the pictured Dremel model ?
That will help to understand works that can be done with it
Mine is far thicker and heavier to be supported by a small cutter
Hint or comments about the drilling part are highly appreciated.
Best,
Samuel

I have a few
other ideas on how to use it and will post the results!
