Found Something In My Basement.

Any idea what this is? I'm not good with tool names, I usually call it "That thingy". If this is what I think it is, I have yet another key tool in my armor making.

Looks like a rotary tool. Is there a date on the case or tool?

 

[mrdeth0]

Not from what I could see. I would look, but I put it back in the basement.

It's a dremel.

I can tell from the bits and having seen quite a few dremels in my time.

Now the question is
do you have to hook it up to an air compressor or just plug it in?
hmmmm

Plug it in. Pneumatic tools are not that big because they don't house an electric motor like the one you have does, hence the size. Looks like a Dremmel from the mid 90's. I have one that looks incredibly similar that I put a flex-hose attachment on for precision work.

But the case looks like it's from the 80's.
