A small handheld Dremel-like rotary tool is a popular MillingDrillingHead for RepRap.


There have been two approaches to combining a RepRap with a Dremel-like grinder:

  • Attach the Dremel directly on the tool head. Move the whole thing around.
  • Attach the Dremel to a flex shaft. Attach only the tip of a flex shaft on the tool head. mount the Dremel itself some other convenient stationary location.



Challenge

There was a design contest going on to adapt an existing Dremel Holder from Marcus that was designed for the RepMan to the RepRap "Darwin" or RepRap "Mendel".
It was closed after Bogdan designed such a toolhead.
