I've asked for another Dremel for Christmas. One for the 'office' in the house and one for the shed. I've got no chance that Debbie will buy it but it's a nice idea. I'll enjoy the socks almost as much.

Have a chat with Goat Major. He has been successfully juggling two Dremels for a while now - Mrs GM still has no idea.

just to be clear - thats two airbrushes. No wargamer in their right mind would own more than zero Dremels

My Mrs was asking what I wanted for Christmas. What an excellent idea.
I have heard good things about the Proxxon FBS240/E. Although hot Proxxon action does not have the right ring about it.
So what else is on your Santa list ?
I hear Peelers getting a fridge magnet diary so he can make sure he does not miss anything next year.

Apologies. Similar principle though, surely?

I too heard good things about the Proxxon, in fact I can't remember why I eventually went for the Dremel. If D doesn't get me the Dremel for Christmas I may well get the Proxxon for myself. The advantage is that there's a foot operated on/off switch (which, I think, also adjusts the speed - don't quote me). Ah, I remember, the upright stand for the Proxxon was expensive and looked like a lump of 1930s ironwork.
Bits and bobs on my list apart from that. I've pretty much got everything I want......a bigger pension would be nice, but I'd only fritter it away.

Of course you do.
I think he wants your Dremel.
