they'd  still have rubbish collets and runout.



Yeah, it IS amazing a firm that manufactures such a "popular  thing" could do 
it so BADLY for years!  A "Dremel tool" is hardly good  enough for 
wood-carving!  If runout, etc. were not too bad for that use,  the longevity of the 
device as-is from factory certainly is too short!  I  had one that gave-out before 
"the pretty had rubbed off", and I needed such for  misc. shop stuff, so I 
bought an "equivalent" from Sears.  Has lasted MUCH  longer, though has a clumsy 
housing (the cylindrical simple shape can be adapted  to home-brew rigs much 
more easily).
