... have recently got a Foredom SR series pendant motor with 39-inch key drive flex-shaft and H.20 and H.30 handpieces :-\ need a trip to IKEA to find something to hang it on  :palm:

nothing much found on YouTube regarding its use for electronics applications - though someone has adapted a China copy to run off a cordless Makita router  ::)
armandine2:
some further Foredom options:- drill press and motor bench stand

+quite a good (dentist's) overview on rotary tools:

armandine2:
example video of an electronics bench with rotary tool - plenty of noise - not so jarring with the Foredom  :phew:

I use a very cheap £25 rotary drill kit, mains powered - it's never given me any trouble and always been "perfectly adequate".

My hunch (and the poll supports this) is that the majority of electronics people will agree with you - I expect hobbyists may be more inclined to think about buying CNC milling or Laser cutting platforms (than expensive handheld tools).
