Description of Dremel 220-01 Rotary Tool Work Station
Turn that Dremel rotary tool into a drill press with this rotary tool workstation from Dremel. The station accepts several Dremel models to drill perpendicular and angled holes in 15-degree increments from 90 degrees vertical to 90 degrees horizontal. Inch and metric markings on the base make for accurate drilling of workpieces. Depth markings with depth stop provide consistent depth adjustment, while the sturdy metal base with four clamping points holds workpieces securely in place. The workstation also holds the rotary tool steady for other tasks, such as polishing metal objects, sanding different shapes and grinding metal pieces--with greater precision and less fatigue. The station's telescoping shaft allows adjustments to any height between 16 and 29 inches. On-board storage for drill bits, cords, and wrenches keep them all in handy reach.

The Dremel Work Station gives you the flexibility to tackle hobbies, fix-it renovations, or special projects without having to invest in a variety of separate tools and attachments. Its stable, sturdy design lets you perform low-torque, high-speed jobs like drilling holes in metal to make earrings and bracelets, or sanding even the most detailed pieces of an architectural model. Measuring 56 square inches, and offering a drill depth of two inches, the sturdy, slotted base has four clamping points, while a rack and pinion feed lever ensures smooth, accurate operation.
Flexibility for Intricate Work
Whether you're buffing stones or sanding parts of a radio-controlled airplane, you'll appreciate that you can tilt the Dremel Work Station in 15-degree increments from 15 to 90 degrees horizontal -- perfect for more focused, intricate work. When you're grinding or polishing materials, the tool holder prevents slippage by keeping tools at 90 degrees, and the telescoping FlexShaft tool stand lets you adjust to any height between 16 and 29 inches. Once you've finished working for the day, place bits, collets, and wrenches in the tool caddy for easy clean-up and storage.
Easy Setup and Durable, User-Friendly Design
Easy to set up and operate, the Work Station features straightforward, durable construction. Clips keep messy cords from obscuring your visibility as you work, and inch and metric markings on the base allow for precise measurements and ensure that your adjustments are consistent, too. Compatible rotary tools attach and detach smoothly so you can polish, grind, or drill holes in stone, metal, or glass for rivets, eyelets, or cold connections of any sort.

Tools and Hardware Reviews of Dremel 220-01 Rotary Tool Work Station
Customer Review: Made My Day: Dremel Work Station !
Summary: 5 Stars
This Dremel rotary tool (drill press) work station made my day. It helped me drill holes on a printed circuit board. It helped me drill perfect holes. I was completely happy with the work station and would recommend it without reservation to anyone who might also be fabricating a printed circuit board, for home/hobby use.
I have worked in machine shops my whole life. I have two drill presses at home. I have an old Atlas 6 inch swing metal working lathe. The Dremel work station complements my options in the area of home/hobby projects. The holes I drilled were .021 inches in diameter. This is 21 mils, or 21 thousandths of an inch. This about the thickness of 5 sheets of photocopy/printer paper. It took care and patience to align for each and every hole. That task belonged to me. Never did I need to back step or take some kind of extra precaution because there was any noticeable slop in the work station. The tool itself was not a distraction. I used a light touch to center the drill bit and guide it into a tiny tiny punched dimple that I struck into each of the many holes I drilled. I did not lean on the operating lever with two hands. I used a very light one or two finger press to rotate the lever.
Look, the price of this tool is $42, today at Amazon, with free super saver shipping. This does not suggest cheapness in terms of you get what you pay for. From my perspective, you get a nice tool, for only $42, including shipping. I read all the reviews and debated the purchase. In the end I needed to try it and went to Home Depot. It cost me $50 dollars there. Still, it was worth it. Get over the fact that there are plastic parts. The work station worked for me, without qualification. I mounted a new Dremel 4000 rotary tool, without issue. Yes, the rotary tool is fixed at only one end. But for what I did and what I could imagine using the tool/work station combo, this works.
If I need to drill through a piece of 1/4 inch thick aluminum plate, I am going to use one of my heavy duty drill presses. Heavy duty work involves drill bits that fetch-up, for example. For what I did today, the work station provided all the rigidity and precision I required.
