Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I personally own Proxxon 38481 IB/E Professional Rotary Tool. [That model is slightly more expensive--a bit more professional-looking--and it comes with collets instead of a keyless chuck.]
This model, the one I am reviewing, Proxxon 38472 FBS 115/E Precision Rotary Tool, was bought as a gift; however, I couldn't help but take it out and compare it to the Proxxon model that I already own. The two models use the identical motor with the identical analog variable control wheel and so performance is nearly identical. As far as I can tell, the only difference is aesthetics. That, and chucks get worn out over time, increasing play; also, collets are easier to change attachments if they're all the same size... Then again, you can get a new keyless chuck for $10, or you could buy MICROMOT collets for this model for $20.
In short, the hobbyist or tinkerer will notice little difference between this "precision" model and Proxxon's "professional" one.PS
They are both far superior to anything Dremel makes--and the all-new Dremel 4000 is plastic crap.

Proxxon has been a respected name in Europe for many years and now their tools are available in a 115V version for the US market. The Precision Grinder is a step up from the typical hardware store rotary tools available today. It has more power, a smaller body and a smoother running motor. It comes with a drill style chuck that is infinitely adjustable from 1/32" to 1/8" or the collet set can be purchased separately. The tool comes complete with 40 accessories as well as a sturdy plastic case. 5,000-20,000 RPM
