Birthday is coming up, family wants ideas. Anyone using a dremel with a diamond tip blade? Thinking I want one to cut some torch/hammer heads off... Read this might be a good solution when you don't have space/practicality for a diamond band saw. Would a dremel work for encrusting monti too?

Thoughts or experiences with what you use?

Dremel just seems to make a huge mess regardless of the bit. If you're able to do it in some type of enclosure, that would probably work well. Using it in a room though, you're going to have splatter everywhere.
