Handy tool

My go to is the left one.

That right one...

Oh man...

That one don't get caught in no meat. The RPM's will be the least of your worry with that one.

I was able to clinch down and stop that left one with my armpit one time, but thank goodness it wasn't that right one.

Yep, I said armpit.

Memories.

Wtf?
 
Have a Dremel tool, how about a never-look-for-chuck wrench?IMG_1985.jpeg Or flipping it to the correct size to change the tool.
 
I guess you've not used the chuck enough to know that the tool will come loose. If you look closely you will see that chuck on the Deramel, the wrench is a must, for me.

BTW Amazon sells a pair for 19 beans.

40 years? ish? Maybe I ain't.

Personally, wouldn't use anything else and never had any come loose. Own at least three.

Could it be what's being, cut, ground, or shaped? For instance, are all your builds plastic or wood, soft material? Hand tightened most likely just fine.

Sometimes I've removed the chuck to use a collet.

I use my Dremels for many different things and material types from model work, automobiles, sharpening my chainsaw, in the house or around the yard so I'm not sure? I have at least 4 Dremel tools, corded and cordless, and have a chuck for all of them and still have that first chuck I mentioned I bought many, many moons ago working just fine from very low speeds to very high. I have 2 of the Dremel flex-shaft extensions and have chucks on those too.

Now, having said all that, I hope I don't have problems with the chucks. A grout tool coming outta that thing at 35,000 RPM might sting?

Most times (all) I use a speed way below 35k, I have yet to find a need for that, but not to say I won't in the future.
Working on cars you say, I've never found a need for the Dremel. But I do work on & have built 2 cars.
Not to bore you, but as they say, pictures or it never happened. 32 truck built for my wife a 4 year build, the 34 been driving it 1999 to date.. stroker motor.

Nice. Real nice. I like that front grill
 
Glass is great for a model building surface. Flat building surface, artist's pallet, quick color mix, easy to clean, cutting masking tape for masks. Some model kit building plans use symbols for part colors. Having the symbol & paint name on a single page slide it under the glass.

Having an old copier platen is the perfect glass for this, or safety glass from a flat car door window. Locate a class shop that has safety glass.
