How do I use a Dremel?

Yes it is nice to be able to put your projects INSIDE something isn't it? You know, to hold everything together so it doesn't flop around? Discuss the techniques here!

Just use the cut off wheels and go slowly. Don't try to cut through the entire thing in one pass. I just graze the surface on the first pass to make a little indent and then start going deeper. For holes just buy the correct hole saw or bit. Saves a lot of headache and you will always get a perfect circle. Harbor Freight makes a cheap hole saw kit.

A good guide to start can be found here.
