[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1279083, member: 24284"] When I started gunsmithing school in '93, the Dremel tool was [I][B]not[/B] [/I]on the tool list. Over the next two years we were instructed in the use of some powered hand tools, but the only one used for 'finish work' was the 1/4 sheet vibrating 'palm sander', and it couldn't be used [B][I]everywhere. [/I][/B]And when it came to that 'final' sanding, that was all done by hand for uniformity. A Dremel tool or die grinder might be used to hog-out' some inletting and to create 'pockets' for the 'mechanical lock' of the bedding compound for a glass bedding job, but never where its' use might be seen. Gaps and crooked lines that should be straight are just plain ugly! [/QUOTE]
