Demonstration for the Dremel

Dremel is a instrument that you use when there's sharp edges of glazes sticking out of a piece. You use the Dremel to gride down the sharp bits. It smooths it out and also makes it less noticable that there's a thing sticking out of your piece.
Hopefully I would be using this instrument less ans less as time goes by for I will get better(or start, and lear, rather) at stacking kilns but as for today, I had about an 1/2 hour to an hour session with this little drill.


what the Dremel looks like whe first taken out of the box

You change the head of the Dremel to a Grider. It looks and sounds like a dentist when it's on.


*YOU MUST WEAR SAFETY GLASSES WHEN USING A DREMEL.

The procedure of using a dremel is quite simple, all you have to be careful is not to put oo much pressure on your piece for it might snap on you.
After wearing a safety glasses and not putting too much pressure on the thing, all you have to do is slowly grinde away the little edges that's sticking out all over the place.
