Beginner Dremels Tool Boot CampFebruary 2, 9:00am - 12:00pm (SOLD OUT)Mixed Media Class By Helen DriggsClass Fee: $130.00Kit Fee: $70.00 Sheet metal and metal tubing, chopstick, lubricant, plastic buttons, wood and laminate. One all-purpose drill bit and matching collet included in kit.
Skill Level: Beginner
You own a Dremel and you've never opened the box... Sound familiar? In
this beginner technique class, we focus on the safe and proper use of rotary tools, and learn
about the many different attachments available to grind, sand, cut, carve, polish and buff all
kinds of materials, like plastics, wood, paper, and metal. Learn to troubleshoot, which
attachments work for what material, and how to effectively use your rotary tool with
confidence. We will spend a significant amount of time drilling, as this is the most-used
technique for this class of tool. Students completing this class are welcome into and
encouraged to sign up for my afternoon “Dremels: Advanced Techniques” session.

Special Notes or requirements: Students should bring a Hand-held electric-powered
Dremel tool (or other brand) machine and parts kit; any model, PLEASE: no battery-
operated models, no rechargables, no "flex-shaft" Dremels. This class is for hand-held

Rotary units only. If it is a brand new (post 2014) Dremel unit, please ensure you have the
proper collets for your model. Notebook and pencil, Portable bench pin or block of wood to
drill into. Drill bits and collets if you have them. I encourage you to bring your mystery
attachments. If we have time, you may experiment on the kit materials using them. SAFETY
GOGGLES are a must.
