Maggie Baldino Webboard User Reg: 05-20-2002 Posts: 389 Loc: Offline	Having always used nail clippers to trim my dog's nails, I would like to venture and try my Dremel tool. What bits (ends, attachments, ect) do those of you experienced in this use? Maggie

Al Curbow Webboard User Reg: 06-30-2005 Posts: 974 Loc: northeast Offline	Hi Maggie, i tried it using the 1" wafer wheel that attaches to the arbor that comes with the tool, and found that there's no advantage at all using a dremel, it took longer and you have to be super careful, also even though it's a small tool it's turning at high speed, so wear glasses if you try it ( not implying you can't see <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />, but to be careful of high speed debris), good luck, AL

Maggie Baldino Webboard User Reg: 05-20-2002 Posts: 389 Loc: Offline	Thanks gang! It figures! I search way back in the archives to check this wasn't a repeat and never read the last two replies in that quoted post! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> Question: on using the sanding bits, won't they make the nail warm up a bit? I'm guilty of getting the quick a couple of times and I'm sure my dog won't be amused by a hot foot either! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" /> Maggie

Joyce Salazar Webboard User Reg: 02-28-2008 Posts: 2075 Loc: Dallas, Texas Offline	Simon, I have this one: http://www.lowes.com/pd_144969-353-7700-1/15_4294857558+4294965332_40?productId=3013665&pl=1&currentURL=/pl_Dremel_4294857558%204294965332_40_?newSearch=true$ddkey=http:SearchCatalogDisplay It has a rechargeable battery, I only use the replaceable sander drums as the others in the above posts. I like that it is cordless because I can do their nails anywhere without needing an outlet for a cord. It is powerful enough to make the task easy and quick. It works great, and my dogs tolerate it so much better than clipping. Not sure if this helps you. Joyce Salazar
