Editorial Reviews Product Description: Includes Cordless Golf Cleaning Kit - 760-04, Carrying Bag, Wrench, Bristle Brush - 403, Brass Brush - 535 Amazon.com: We don't believe there's a golfer on the planet who wouldn't like a better score, and this little Dremel kit is a dream come true. Any compacted soil on your clubs can affect your trajectory; but a quick buzz with this neat little gizmo and your clubs are ready for the Masters. You can also clean off your golf spikes with the special bristle-brush attachments for a smooth pivot. The pros' caddies clean their clubs before every shot, and we think it'll be your habit, too, once you try out this handy kit. The carrying case clips neatly right to your golf bag and because it runs on good old AA batteries, there's never any recharging. Two smooth speeds deliver the power you want, and changing brushes is a snap. It's the perfect gift for the golfer who has everything except a perfect score.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Rating - 4 Date: 2008-12-27 Content: I am a modder, and I used to use this a lot on many different mods that I work on (game consoles, routers, laptops etc.). The portability is really nice, though the power isn't as strong as some other rotary tools like the black & decker rtx-b in particular. With fully charged batteries, it can cut through alot of materials, but dont expect to be able to drill through any metal. The only thing that could make it better is if they included an upconverter in the rotary tool. That way, instead of the tool slowing down when the batteries start dying, it will continue to operate at a good speed until the batteries are completely drained. I highly suggested it if you NEED something cordless or if your doing quick or lightweight work (trimming pet nails, etching some plexiglass, etc.) However, if your going to be working on a project for some time or if your cutting plexi, I would have to suggest the black and decker rtx-b or rtx-6 rotary tools (the other dremel rotary tools are highly overpriced in my opinion, and the black and decker ones have more amperage = torque = power = ability to cut through harder substances.)
NOTE: Get some rechargeable batteries, you'll thank yourself later. Summary: Not Just for Golf Balls!

Rating - 5 Date: 2006-08-18 Content: The best price I've found for a battery-operated Dremel is the Golf Cleaning Tool Kit. Similar tools, albeit with sanding drum attachments, are sold as "pet grooming tools" and cost significantly more. I use this tool regularly for grinding toenails on my show dogs and find they vastly prefer this battery-operated tool to a corded, electric one. This tool is capable of many traditional high speed/low torque rotary tool tasks.
If you're looking for battery powered convenience (4-AA batteries), I highly recommend this two-speed tool. Battery life is reasonable and though the tool is not too cumbersome in the hand for most jobs, if you have a job that requires you to hold it like a pencil it can become a bit fatiguing (it's pretty heavy at the end opposite your work.) The button-lock means you don't have to fool around with small wrenches to tighten or loosen the collett when changing attachments. If you find instances where the convenience of battery operability is of paramount importance, this is a very plausible tool to consider. Summary: Battery powered convenience / less annoying noise
Rating - 4 Date: 2006-08-07 Content: Since that there are very few cordless drills made for the hobbyist/modeler, I converted this tool to an excellent drill by replacing the 1/8" collet with a 0" collet, whereas, it will accept #60 thru #80 drill bits. Of course, the low speed of 5,000 RPM may be too fast for plastic or metal, it works great on wood. Summary: Change the collet and you have a handy drill!
Rating - 4 Date: 2004-04-17 Content: I frankly have zero interest in golf, but I did need a portable, light-duty rotary tool for cleaning battery contacts and light buffing, and this one does very well. It runs on disposable AA alkaline batteries rather than a rechargeable battery pack, and I consider that a plus, since it results in lower immediate cost and avoids the irritating self-discharge characteristics and lengthy recharge times of NiCd and NiMH batteries. Torque is limited, but ample for things other than metal grinding or wood routing. It's a useful tool. Summary: More than Golf
