VEVOR Flex Shaft Grinder 780W Rotary Tool 500-23000RPM Rotary Carver with 1/4" 3-Jaw Chuck & Stepless Speed Foot Pedal Hanging Grinding Machine 131PCS Accessories for Jewelry Polishing Grinding DIY

Excellent flexshaft kit. This included the power unit, flexshaft (and spare internal drive cable), foot pedal control, a set of assorted sanding & grinding bits and a chuck key for tightening the collet. It also came with a spare set of carbon brushes and springs. The power unit plugs into the foot pedal and the pedal then plugs into the wall. You can use it without the foot pedal by plugging the power unit into the wall, but then you need to use the power unit switch to turn it on/off. With the pedal you step on it to turn the power unit on and take your foot off to stop it. This makes it very handy to use when using the sanding or grinding bits. I use mine for bandsaw and puzzle boxes and the fine control that this makes available is very helpful in reducing the amount of hand sanding I need to do. I use a variety of sanding sponges, mops and drill mount sanding drums in this unit. If it fits in the chuck I can use it to more easily get into the nooks and crannies that would be difficult or impossible using a drill or drill press or even something like a Dremel as the flexshaft is relatively small (about 6" at the tool end and a half-inch in diameter). The Vevor flexshaft kit was a much better price than other flexshaft products I looked at. It is solidly built, nicely kitted out in with accessories and well constructed. The power unit is robust and a little heavy if you were holding it directly but I have mine hanging off the side of my bench so all I'm handling is the shaft end. Two things they could improve on would be the addition of something to lock the outer sleeve of the tool end to make it easier to access and tighten the chuck (it works fine the way it is, but as I'm tightening it up if the chuck key slips out, the outer sleeve may rotate a bit and I have to readjust it to get the key back in the chuck and engaged with the chuck gears). The other modification I'd make is the addition of a hook on the flexible shaft cable or some sort of stand/tool rest to allow the chuck end of the flexshaft be secured to the table when working so it doesn't drop to the floor or roll off the bench.

When I opened the box I was shocked at the quality of this machine. Hefty and nicely finished; this thing feels like it will hold up for a very long time. It took almost no time to set up, and when I tried it, I was pleased. Comparatively quiet and comfortable in my hand compared to my Dremel. This 1000w Vevor reminds me of the die grinders in a tool and die shop! It backs those RPMs with a lot more torque than my Dremel. The foot pedal does feel cheap, but the functionality is excellent, and it's easy to control the speed while in use. The chuck is easy to use and adjusts up to 1/4 inch and down to almost nothing! I prefer it over collets. Having a forward/off/reverse is handy. The flex shaft rotates inside a metal sheath rather than plastic. It comes with a spare flex shaft, an extra set of brushes, and a small starter assortment of bits. I did lubricate the flex shaft, which I would recommend doing before using it so it doesn't wear out too soon. Only time will tell if it holds up but for only $69 I'm loving it!

The drive motor has awesome power better then any Dremel for less $ money. I have burned up 3 Dremel in 1 year with my hobby of making lock blade folding knives. The speed controller that comes with unit is a bit cumbersome to use for long running work. I purchased a speed controller Hanlei Model CCMTKAC-400 to control the unit without the foot peddle. You may want to purchase the thing. I found these work great. QWORK 3.2ft Metal Flexible Inner Shaft Cable, 2 Pack Inner Flex Shaft Cable. Flexible Flex Shaft Rotary Grinder Handle Tool Tackle 0.3~4mm. There are many Pro's and there are a few Con's Pro's Foot peddle speed control (Is a Pro and Con) Drive Motor power enough for any task. Noise level much lower than compared to Dremel. Replaceable Tool holder making it easy to have easy swappable tools. Tool holder is a 3 jaw chuck holding up to 1/4" 6.3mm for any tool bit you can think of. Con's Unit is not very portable. Unit come with only foot peddle speed control (Google AC Fan Speed Controller.) No built in guilds for tools like Dremel threaded head. ( I Created 3d printed hand held worktable can find on thingiverse.com Work in progress) Tool holder head large making tight spaces a bit cumbersome

item works well the first thing I did was to remove the outer cover on the cable and lubed the inner part with white silicone grease like I do on the dremel tool and I have no trouble with it getting hot or breaking I run them for hrs at a time well made worth the money

So far so good. Just got it in the mail today and first looks the chuck is well constructed and feels robust in your hands. I noticed there's play in the flex shaft shroud and if you pull it tight it disengages the flex shaft from the chuck. Might be a safety feature but I don't read manuals unless I have to. The chuck key is made of cheap plastic but machining tolerances are good on it interfacing the chuck. Lots of power even for the 1000w. I've tried it with a very aggressive bit with a plunge cut in frozen spruce and no problem. The foot pedal is also cheaply made but can be replaced easy enough when it breaks. For the money this is well worth it. The core unit (motor, flex shaft, chuck) are well made and well balanced. I'm a bit biased because I've bought numerous vevor products and have had nothing but good luck with them. Overall if you're looking for a flex shaft grinder look no further!

Works fantastically, the peddle is great and works for very controlled work, you can have the motor laying down if needed, the check size allows for most standard sizes of tools and drill bits, very robust and I see myself getting many great years of work from this. WAY better then a Dremel tool which i ditched after their costly parts and fixed size for its tools.

⸻ Ich bin absolut begeistert von diesem Gerät. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist schlicht unglaublich – für diesen Preis bekommt man ein Werkzeug, das in Qualität und Leistung locker mit deutlich teureren Marken mithält. Wer noch einen Dremel kauft, verschwendet ehrlich gesagt sein Geld, ich sehe nicht, wo das Original hier besser sein könnte. Das Handteil ist extrem hochwertig verarbeitet, mit mehreren Kugellagern für besonders sanften Lauf. Auch die Zubehörteile sind top – teilweise sogar besser als bei Dremel, robust und langlebig. Die Handhabung ist intuitiv, alles liegt gut in der Hand und die Bedienung ist selbsterklärend. Für mich eine klare Empfehlung: Top Qualität, unschlagbarer Preis und rundum durchdacht

El material es de buena calidad, el equipo tiene buena potencia. Cumplió mis espectativas

LUBRICATE THE DRIVE SPRING/CABLE BEFORE USE!! UNIT IS SHIPPED DRY! It seems that several people have overlooked this detail, judging by some of the reviews claiming that theirs quit or broke within hours of receipt, or complaining that theirs is rattling loudly. Running without grease will burn up the flex shaft in short order. White Lithium grease is perfect for this. It’s cheaper and easier to find than the proprietary lube from Foredom. Don’t forget to add a motor hanger to your order. That stuff aside, his is a great little Foredom knockoff - much more powerful than my Dremel, and it’s quieter to boot. I’m not sure about the pedal yet, but I might just need to get accustomed to its operation. I’ll probably want to upgrade the hand piece to a quick change style but this one works fine. For the price this thing is the bee’s knees.
