Dremel and tool care

I’m not sure who last used the dremel or when this occurred but when trying to use it last night I noticed all of the wrenches for changing bits were missing and the button to lock the bit in place while loosening it had broken/fallen off.

Damage happens to tools, it’s unavoidable, but please be mindful of the tools you’re borrowing. Feel free to ask for some help, if a piece flies off and you can’t find it, get some more eyes, if something is loose and you’re unsure how to fix it, brainstorm with others. I’ll try 3D printing a new button in the meantime but it may be kicking around on the floor at the moment.

As for the missing wrenches, please try to keep the accessories for each tool together, the dremel is a bit tough with so many bits but the wrenches are quite necessary for it’s usefulness.

Also please if it breaks while you’re using it, speak up! I understand these things happen. Let’s get it fixed and move on. You don’t need to live with the secret guilt.

Yes thank you, I couldn’t think of how to say that without sounding douchey. Problems are always easier to figure out with more heads and while the issue is fresh.
