    About Dremel: A History of Brilliance and Innovation
    Founded in 1932 in Racine, Wisconsin, Dremel is the industry leader in rotary tools. The company owes its success to the inventive genius of its founder and namesake, Albert J. Dremel. In his lifetime, Mr. Dremel owned 55 patents on a wide range of products from electric erasers to a gas-powered rotary lawn mower. His most famous and important invention was a high-speed rotary tool, dubbed the Dremel Moto-Tool. Compact, lightweight, and perfect for a wide range of jobs, the rotary tool was an immediate hit with hobbyists and eventually became accepted as one of the greatest inventions of the 20th century. Today, the Dremel name remains synonymous with utility, durability, and innovation.

    What's in the Box
    Engraver tool, letter and number template, and 9924 carbide point

    The versatile, easy-grip 290-01 lets you decorate and label a wide range of material, from tough metal to delicate glass.

    5 out of 5 stars Dremel Engraver   October 22, 2009
    Kevin M. Johnson (San Leandro, CA)
    I had recently purchased a different engraver from my local hardware store. It was my first time using an engraver but even so I could tell it wasn't working well at all. I took it right back and bought this Dremel. Man, what a difference!! This thing works like crazy! I feel like I can engrave anything successfully. Don't worry about making this purchase. Just go ahead and buy it.


    5 out of 5 stars Dremel 290-01 -Easy to Use- Does the job   September 12, 2009
    TBT PSO Mom (Sunrise, FL USA)
    I had to engrave several cameras and the engraving area was limited. The dremel was easy to hold like a pencil and easy to control. The right amount of pressure allowed for light etching or deeper engraving. I was nervous at first because I thought it was going to go all over the place. The dremel stayed exactly where I wanted it to stay. The stencil template that was included didn't work for me because the letters and numbers were too big for the engraving area but I will try it the next time. I would definitely recommend this dremel. For a craft newbie like me it did the job nicely.



    5 out of 5 stars Totally awesome   September 11, 2009

    Wow, I was actually amazed at the power of this product and the performance. I highly recommend this engraver. The tip does fit the stencil, some one mentioned that the stencil wasn't the right one. I had no problem, and the overall performance is worth 5 stars. Cheers.


    4 out of 5 stars Created long lasting pictures drawn by my 4yr old (but I do have a question)   August 28, 2009
    Rachael (NJ)
    I bought the Dremel Engraver last year and used it to create gifts from my daughter for her grandparents. She had just learned how to write the alphabet so I had her use a permanent marker to write their names on key chains that had a metal plate that was intended to be professionally engraved. I just traced over her shaky handwriting with my novice shaky engraving. It wasn't a flawless copy of what she did but there was no doubt that it was her handwriting. The permanent marker just rubbed/washed off. Everyone loved them.
    This year I bought some vases from I k e a that were made from very thick glass. For a wedding shower gift she drew pictures and wrote the names of the bride and groom around the vase. Once again I traced over the marker and her pictures and writing were preserved. Once again, a huge hit.
    So, I have found this tool ideal for preserving art work/writing done by my 4yr old.
    My only question is this...on the photo for this product the person is engraving a glass plate with beautiful leaves on it. How is the finished product so beautiful? I am only beginning to use this tool. I could improve with practice but am I missing some accessories or tools? I really don't know anything about engraving so I would love to hear any suggestions.
    Thanks

    The tool works fine. Note that the cutting tip is the important 'business end' of this tool. It is supplied with a general purpose point tip, great for writing your name on something. But you can put any tip in there you want--and it will make a difference. You can buy other Dremel tips or make your own. You can easily reshape the provided tip into a more traditional engraving style. By the way the packaging states that the tool is made by Bosch in Mexico for Dremel. It's a bit loud, pretty much like all electric engravers though. If you want depth to your engraving the tool can do it, you just have to repeatedly go over (and over, and over) your design. The variable stroke length does help but frankly doesn't make a large difference in most metals and you give up some tool control on the higher settings.
