An excellent accessoryNov 04, 2006
By L. F. Smith
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 accessoryJan 23, 2007
By R. Reeves
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.Jan 10, 2007
By J. Reichard "Stoneworker"
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!

Lots of slop makes it impossible to make accurate cuts.Jun 07, 2006
By Farrell Farahbod
I purchased the 220-01 Workstation planning to use it as a drill press. After taking it out of the box, and assembling it per the instructions, I realized that it is horribly flexible, making it impossible to drill holes with ANY accuracy. I'm not that picky either -- I know that a $50 drill press/attachment will have its limitations, but even with the 1/8th inch drill bit, attempting to make a hole is impossible.

Trying to make a hole yields a disfigured slot. The tool holder will flex in one direction when you push down, and flex in the other direction when you pull back up. You end up with a disfigued slot that is of no use. It ruined a piece I was trying to work on.

The dremel tool itself is held tight ... It's the flimsy plastic tool holder that seems to have a lot of slop internally.

To make matters worse, the clamp that will let you rotate the tool holder 90 degrees (to use the dremel as a stationary sander, etc.) never locks tight, so if you aren't careful, the tool holder itself can rotate counter-clockwise.

This "workstation" is a waste of money if you plan to use it as a drill press, or want any sort of accuracy at all.

I wish I'd never bought it.Apr 02, 2009
By Elle
I bought this work station & a dremel to go with it to use as a PRECISION drill press for handcrafting jewellery. This was to accompany the Italian flex shaft I already own.

Intending to accurately drill holes in Sterling Silver & Gold, I have tried this many times now to no avail. There is too much movement in the work station to accurately do anything. And yes my Dremel work station is bolted to my work bench.

While the work station can be manipulated in many ways/heights & angles these adjustments become inaccurate upon tightening up the thumb screws to lock these positions in. There is so much movement in the tightening, that you never get close to what you were aiming for by the time it is secure enough to use.

As well as this the 'pull down leaver' is spongy and has side to side movement during the last centimetre or so of travel - no hole is ever drilled exactly in the planned position.

The spongy pull down leaver also has a spring return, which initially looked usefull - until you drill many holes in sequence, then it just becomes irritating having the leaver spring-back EVERY time.

Finally the changing of bits (I am using .8mm twist bits) is slow and cumbersome as you need to swing the drill to the side just to get enough room to manipulate the chuck release etc. The chuck release is hard to access as it is recessed back from the nose of the drill press (where the dremel screws into the drill press assembly)

Overall I was looking forward to having a micro-drill press when I bough these 2 items from Bunnings a few months back. Since then I have become frustrated with this clumsy product and wish I'd never bought it. Basically the tolerances are too wide and NOT for delicate metal work.
