Default Dremel Drills/BITS?

Does anyone know anything about this stuff?
************

I need am going to drill my case for the watercooling parts I have purchased...they should all arrive Friday.

Anyone recommend a good drill along with the snap-ons?


I was looking at this
697-06 just for the bits
http://www.amazon.com/Dremel-697-06-.../dp/B0000C6DZ6

Is that ok? If it is..what brand drill should i get?

if you're shopping for dremel tools, wouldn't you use them with a dremel?

Ive never really used a dremel except for porting 2-stroke cylinders. Drilling and stuff I've always used a drill, either a cordless, or a big drill press, which I can no longer live without (spoiled hardcore).

Hell, now I run a waterjet, I a cut any size hole from .050" to 48".

If all you're doing is putting a hole in a PC case, it really wont matter what you're using. It's not hard metal, and its not super thick. Cordless drills are cheap (or use the dremel if you have one), and you can buy single drill bits at most hardware stores, just pick up the one you need.

if you end up buying a dremmel, get one that plugs into the wall...I had a battery powered one, and it ran out of juice quick....

what size hole/s do you need to make?

you could prolly use a drill and a drill bit....

Dremels are great, I use mine all the time. But it sounds like you just need a cheap drill...
