I'm a mouldmaker (specializing in thin-wall plastic injection moulding repair/refurbishment). We have Japanese, German and Swiss shaft-drive and direct-drive polishers/sanders. These units are meant for 100% duty cycles, all day, everyday. Thus, the price of these units are cheap car levels. Having a bunch of these would be awesome for quick touch ups where a 10 minute tool change on our power unit or hand set would have to be done. The problem is I doubt these would hold up to our abrasives (everything from blasting silica to 3 micron diamond paste) and all the incidental hardened metal dust. Dust extraction or a vacuum would help mitigate those issues.
I think these would be a great addition to anyone's toolkit needing occasional fine work.
Thanks for sharing!
And yes, I agree with you: Rotary tools will get the majority of work done. Roughing, smoothing, to fine polishing rotary tools do 95% of my work. Reciprocating is required for directional texturing, draw stoning, and shapes that a round head cannot accomodate.
Thanks for sharing your experience too!
@ALAPINO Any experience with the Argofile Artima sanders? I like buy-it-for-life hobby gear and they look like the closest thing in this genera of tool. Your application sounds heavier duty tho.
@@pbkobold I haven't personally used them but they seem okay for the price. The specifications look adequate for hobbyist makers and model makers. Shank and accessory compatibility isn't clear, however. If it's a standard like 3 mm the options are almost endless. If the tooling is proprietary, I would be wary.
It really does depend on what you need it for. If you're sanding and profiling soft things you can get really creative with a small budget and a Dremel style tool or micro-pencil grinder (pneumatic grinders can be found for $15-$20 at the low end). If you must have reciprocating action, I would normally advise people to stick to corded options. Cordless options add cost and complexity, with that generally a shorter tool lifespan. Unless the portability is top of your priority list, of course.
If you're already invested in a cordless battery ecosystem take a look at that catalogue for their offerings. E.g. Milwaukee M12 has a decent rotary tool. Bosch/Dremel had a cordless, erm, Dremel tool that was good for light duty work.
Aside from oscillating multi-tools I'm not aware of any of the big brands offering a micro-reciprocating polisher/sander. It's a pretty niche tool.
Great tips. Thank you so much. I'm removing support marks from resin 3D printed figures and the dremel just isn't delicate enough. I'd never looked at pencil air grinders before and there are a lot of options.
@@pbkobold Have you tried the pencil extension attachments for the Dremel? Using that with smaller shank tooling increases your "feel" and dexterity for fine work.
It does seem, from what you've described, something like this or the Argofile would fit your needs well.
I wish you luck!
It seems like a handy tool to have in your toolbox. One thing people should note, is while these work really well on raw 3D prints, they are TERRIBLE for primed pieces. The sand paper gums up and becomes useless in seconds, so if you prime a model and see you have more sanding that's needed, these will barely work so try and get it perfect before priming.
I haven’t tried that myself yet but I can definitely relate to that
@@evolutionxstudios also the led is so useless lol if anything it's just draining battery
@@AsimPaints True :D
You should try running your gummed up sandpaper bits against a sanding belt cleaning block. They aren't magic, but they do more than you might think.
@olinc.6861 I actually tried this, but if you just go back to sanding a primed surface it'll gunk up in two seconds, and the more you try cleaning it off the more the grit deteriorates.
Hey EV
Thank you for sharing, it is nice to see what is out there.
Happy Easter and take care 😊
Thanks my man! Happy Easter to you too!
@@evolutionxstudios
Thank you 🙂
lol the Nik Nocturnal “Heavy” was a nice touch.
Just bought one of these using your link. can't wait to try it out =)
thanks a lot! Hope you'll like it
Another great tip! Thank you for sharing. I think I will go with the little brother version.
Thanks Jerry! You won’t regret it
Excellent summary. Great video. Thank you.
Thank you!
Neat, i was looking a while ago at the small dremel but didn't bother with it, wonder if it's better.
I like the small rotary tool a bit more yeah
just got the little brother in the mail yesterday and it’s great, would love to get this as well…..good info
Thanks mate
I have both and they have there pros and cons price wise it’s fair for the functions these offer as far as sandpaper u can use types just by double sided tape apply it to the paper and stick it on the shaped head and cut fairly easy to do. Just can be time consuming vs precut ones.
Good idea!
Very interesting! I’m considering buying both..they seem to be pretty lightweight as compared to a Dremel.
thanks for watching! Yeah they are much more convenient to handle!
Be great if DSPIAE ES did a Reciprocating Saw or a saw blade attachments for this?.
That would be neat too
Nice review!
Thank you!
I do a LOT of 3D printing, mostly with resin. Got this delivered a few weeks ago, it's actually really great. The tool heads it comes with are super handy. I just need to know where I can order replacement sanding pads here in the US.
You can get them on Aliexpress too, not sure if you'll get it anywhere else.
I am working to start supplying these on my website in the next several months!
Didn't know this existed - thanks!
Thanks for watching!
can you see if it would be possible to put a saw blade on it to make a tiny electric saw?
You would need to modify an exisiting sanding head but I feel like the stroke that the tool is doing is not enough to properly saw.
Don't know if this was mentioned in this section, but this also has model kit builders and customizers in mind; when dealing with nasty nub-marks, especially those placed in the worst places ever, this tool could come in real real handy for this sort of intricate task + may save time in sanding in general; DSPIAE's best friends with the Gunpla community
Totally agree!
Im gonna try ordering this, seems perfect for polishing stuff with awkward angles, like a knife blade up against its handle or bolster. Lets hope huba buba express actually bothers to send something this time haha.
Haha, i actually never had problems with the huba buba express
@@evolutionxstudios Really? I must have really bad luck then. Ive had to ask for a refund 3 times on ali baba and 2 times on temu for stuff never showing up. And I dont actually order much either, its a total of maybe 5 orders on each over the years.
I just bought one of these, and it's great for getting into tight spaces. I'm really very happy with it... though it's more of an addition to the rotary tool rather than a replacement for it.
totally agree! It's good to have both of them in the tool box and each of them work better for different use cases.
Really useful tool but after a week it doesn't hold charge anymore. I can't find a similar tool and would love something to help me sand, as I have problems with my hands. Maybe I'll try their other rotary tool but it doesn't have the forward-back motion, and not sure I trust DSPAIE's batteries anymore...
Oh that’s bad. I would contact the seller and try to return it or get a refund
@@evolutionxstudios I hope so too! It's a nifty little device
I wouldn't buy it as a rotary tool because I don't thing it has enough Amps to have good torque but I would for the sanding and more.
No it’s definitely not a replacement for a rotary tool like a large dremel but it works better for those small details
Lithiums are damaged by sitting around fully charged. They are also much more dangerous to the courier. So it's bad they're shipping them at full charge, they should be at 40 to 50%.
oh, didn't know that
How much £600????
Nah, mate, 40-ish $
Use is rather limited as you mentioned. Few reviews saying the same. If you enjoy plastic model building, you would enjoy sanding too. I would stick to sanding stick to cover 90% of the situation. Your review trigger me to get their rotary tool as mine is an AliExpress no name. Dispaie does make nice tool that I already have a few. Fancy packaging.
Totally agree. 90% can be done quicker by hand. I would also take the rotary tool if I’d have to decide between the two
Fascinating! I have two rotary tools I use for this purpose at the moment. The Hoto battery-powered rotary tool is quite nice. I like that this one has some flat heads, but the tiny size implies that the sandpaper would load up very quickly. I might look around for an oscillating tool that’s a bit larger. Thanks for your quick and to-the-point review!
Thanks for watching & taking the time to comment!
An interesting idea but if it’s for model makers wouldn’t they be heading to the bathroom right now to see how they are going to modify the wife’s toothbrush?
we already have the modified toothbrush of course.
Couldn't I just make this out of electric toothbrush?
I have a modified toothbrush as well but I don’t like it. A toothbrush doesn’t typically spin in one direction but rotates in oje direction and then back. This removes less material
We don’t know…could you?
Needs a toothbrush head
Lol 20 mins charge gives 100 min nights of use…classic
First, I think
You win the price!
I gotta pay? What or prize? Do I get to “chosing” the prize?
Its a wast of money only used it once
maybe for you, not for me.
Too expensive for what it is.
It is on the pricy side yeah
It must be very dangerous if you have to wear gloves to use it!!!
Yeah safety first
Lately I'm having trouble with very hard boogers due to my woodstove drying out the house. I have a problem with biting my nails so the dig hunt and rip method is a no go, any adventurous people here with the same problem? This is not a troll!
Garbage. Buy a Proxxon.
Which one exactly?
At twice the price with the transformer included and much larger sanding heads which are no use and not fit for purpose,I think not,you got more money than sense,2 coffee stirrers glued together work with said filing material as well
