They're good. Not the sort of thing you use every day, but when you do, they're good, better than good.

Enjoy for years to come. I love mine.

You'll love it... I have a jewellers one, it's multi speed and hangs off of a rig with a long shaft to a mini chuck and I absolutely love it for pretty much anything... stupidly powerful too!

I bet you'll find yourself looking around the house looking for an excuse to use it lol...

Are you using it for crafts?

Edit - My OH won't take me to Maplins I'd spend to much on flashy lights hee hee

I got so I can tidyup the edges of glass when cutting it for stained glass... it a plug-in version and a great big box of bits for all sorts .... I haven't been into Maplins before... and expected it to be staffed with disinterested drongos ... but no ... The staff were pleasent, helpful and actually went of to find out info and gave good advice ... Impressed..
