    You sound like Dracula! LOL
    Based on my experience, I think you should use the lowest speed for plastics in order to prevent plastic from overheating and melting, resulting in a cleaner cut IMHO.

      When I try using lower speeds my dremel starts jumping around and it gets almost impossible to get an accurate cut.

      Definitely lower speed, maybe around 10k RPM and apply enough pressure so it doesn't skip around.

    I'm new to Dremels, but this thing has been great. czcams.com/users/postUgkxfPgcZ5_Cl0HDUKkMJAKde11YKQZVgMoR The variable speed is awesome and the cordless aspect makes it so easy to work with. I am constantly finding uses for it that make tasks easier. Recently I put in a new deadbolt on one of our doors. I knew I had to enlarge the hold where the deadbolt goes into the door frame. At first I thought I would have to get a big router and figure out how to use it for that, but then I rermembered we have the dremel. I was able to enlarge the hole almost as easy as if I was drawing with a pen. It's also great for grinding our dog's nails done and so many other household tasks.

    As an experiment - I tried drilling with a Dremel as opposed to a cordless drill body (trigger grip style) or a pin vise. I found it a bit awkward and cumbersome - definitely not a task the Dremel is entirely suited to. I have been experimenting with cutting different plastics and materials with the Dremel. Be warned that some make a rancid smell if they more melt than cut.

    I liked the way it looked like you were cutting a hole in the box for something, maybe to fit an extra tool in there, and then it turned out that you were only using the plastic to make something else 😆

    Any tips how to remove melted plastic from my Dremel diamond tip sanding burrs please, I used a diamond saw disc and small burrs to cut and smooth some hard plastic on a hard plastic figure I'm making modifications to and the plastic is the hard kind but not brittle, it melts when hot and has become moulded hard to my metal sanding burr tips and saw disc... Any ideas? 🤔

    I find that these tiny disks for rotary tools are utterly useless and break so easy. Just use a big boy cut off wheel on a angle grinder. These mini disks are pretty dangerous.

    Looks like it is very hard to cut at the straight angle since the cutting wheel is so small so you always have a bit of an angle.
