Dremmel suggestions?

So I have a massive hammer with about 60+ heads on it. Its shaped like a ball. Some heads aren't opening because they're being shaded by the higher ones so I want to cut it and lay them down so that they all get light and flow.

Where do you get a dremel that's not too expensive to do something like this?

Do not buy the dremel from Harbor Freight for $30 or $35 its garbage. I bought to cut some coral/rock and picked up the diamond blades; the damn thing burned out. It worked for a few months with minimal use.

I'll buy a huge chunk of heads once you cut that bad boy up !! let me know :)
 
yeah I think they are diamond bits. not sure about a link I just went there. there might be a kit at Walmart too but I can say the dremmel brand kit at home Depot is very good and a huge step up from the kit that comes with the Walmart Dremel style too

Do you know the ball park of what it cost so I know which one I'm looking for?

I have the same problem with a big hammer coral. This one in the center grew about three times this size so I just broke a large piece off last year. Now the main colony is almost hitting theHammer.jpg glass so I have to do it again, but I just break it even though I have 3 Dremmels. :biggrin:
