It's a set-up that doesn't cart around all that well. A couple of weeks ago I had the honor of making a "diamond setting house call" to Etsy in Brooklyn, New York. My wife and I planned a weekend in The City around this and we had to pack light. I picked up the Dremel Stylus, and it worked just fine. If you don't have a Foredom set-up, this works in its place for much less $. And setting stones in-person is something that really adds to the jewelry experience.

With a $70 pricetag, the Dremel driver seems like a good buy. But if you’re interested in the Stylus as well, you can pick up the combo set for only $30 more — an even better buy.

The reviews of the Dremel Stylus are impressive here and on MAKE, and the tool looks comfortable and easy to use. I am immediately adding it to my wishlist at Amazon.

The only way to improve this tool is to upgrade to the Dremel 3 jaw chuck. Swap out bits quicker and don't worry about losing the wrench! This tool is amazing and very easy to handle.
