oowee Posted April 1, 2022 Report Share Posted April 1, 2022 Looks spot on to me. I would be very pleased with it. I think with pyro it will quickly discolour unless you can seal it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi boo, I've had a dremel motoflex ( new model is the fortiflex) machine now since 2003..which I use to do heavy work and a 4000 which I use for more detailed work...so wouldn't be put off just let the tools do the work and don't try to force them...

boo Posted April 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2022 Cheers , would say they didn't have a hard life , maybe I've been unlucky , when googled was a common fault , repaired one, its where the copper wire comes off the coil & attaches to motor body if that makes sense....

Yeah totally boo, I think though the major problem is over heating I would always go for the highest rating wattage motor...👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
