Dremel 6800-01 Trio Rotary Tool Kit

This is a well made versatile tool. I purchased the Trio in order to cut some 12" diameter holes in particle board (like the peg board material but without the holes!). I purchased this kit because the circle guide was included and it did a great job. I found it useful to move the handle into the inline position (push the round blue button) which made cutting the holes easier. The tool is quieter than I expected and felt very controllable. I was able to plunge the bit into my work piece by using the heel of the base as a pivot on the particle board. There was a slight "fuzz" left on the edge of the particle board where I had made the cut but this was easily removed with a sharp knife. I also used the Trio to make some real clean edged cuts in some 1/4" Plexiglass. I was really impressed as I cannot think of another tool that would do a clean scroll cut in Plexiglass! There was a slight build up of shavings on one edge of the Plexiglass but this was easy to break off by hand leaving a really clean edge. I would recommend this tool if you have to do scroll cuts in a variety of materials. Please note that the bits have a 3/16" shank which is larger than other Dremel bits.

I do not know if I misused it, but it went out one day doing a work on wood that is not hard. and the technician told me that it had burned.

This is a great start to a great tool. Everything about it is great and the ability to move the handle from horizontal to vertical is great and on the hole it is a good tool. BUT it doesn't have enough router bits which limits its use. There are router tools from dremel but they have a 1/8 shank and doesn't work with this tool. This tool take a 3/16 shank with the same size collet. It has four cutting tools and three router bits that you can buy. If this tool has more router bits like a small bowl bit or an v bit or a larger selection of bits I could would use this tool more often. When that happens I will give this tool five stars.

Purchased this item used from one of the "high up"suggested sellers. The description mentioned some small pieces missing, the missing smalls were few. The tool shows little use. The shaft seems tight with little wear. Electrically everything seems fresh. The used price was a fraction of the new. I don't usually buy used tools,but this time it worked well. I feel like I got a real bargain. The only dislike I have is the larger shank size. Requires a new set of bits that won't interchange with my many standard Dremels.

Here's the deal...I purchased it thinking it was the latest and greatest since my older Dremel was just that...OLD. I failed to read the fine print to learn that none of my bits would work on it. This needs special bits and they are hard and expensive to come by. To add insult to injury, it seized up on me during the first few minutes I used it when freehanding an outlet in sheetrock. Dremel replaced it but I had to use my old Dremel to finish the garage until my replacement came 2 weeks later.

I love tools and I pride myself on my tools. This one will not go into my collection - I will probably give it to Goodwill. I am very disappointed in this little tool. My major gripe is that it won't use all the other bits that I have from my other Dremels. It will only use about 3 or 4 different, high priced, specialty bits that are not all that great. The tool has a nice feel to it but it doesn't have much power. I tried to cut a 3/8" piece of pine and it really bogged down. The router bit works OK but you only have one profile. I would not recommend this tool and I'm very sorry I bought it. It was a total waste of money!

I was so excited to get this tool for DIY wood working crafts. I was using the circle guide to cut three circles for a DIY wooden cupcake tower, and the bits kept breaking! i swear on my life i was using it properly, i watched videos and read everything i could on the circle making process and operating the device. It just doesnt have enough power to cut wood, even if it is the appropriate depth for the device. i was upset and requested to return it, i mean what is the point of a tool if the bits break like they are made of glass?

As I have had to be out of town, I have not yet had the chance to use this too, but since I have had an earlier Dremel tool, I know the dependability and ease of use. I will be remodeling my home office and will need the cutter for cuting in electrical boxes, etc. i am anxious to using this new tool

More than meets my needs. Saves me time and energy. Love it. would recommend it to any one. Easy to use.

Arrived in good time. Exactly as depicted. Works amazing and easy to use. Used it Dremel TRIO router bits for putting routered edges on a miniature jewelry cabinet I was making...turned out excellent.

Very versatile, powerful and smooth. Came with more bits than I think I will every use. I highly recommend it.

Cuts good on soft wood but has bit of trouble with harder woods like oak and maple. The sanding part works well.

excellent quality price very useful for many kinds of reparations and work great value for money powerful for its size
